What Causes Painful Red Streaks On The Leg?
My wife has soreness and redish lines on the inside of her left leg. They just appeared today. They roughly run along where her veins would be. She has a swolen knee, but that has been persistent for some time. The redish lines, both in her inside thigh area and then again below the knee are painful to the touch. We are travelling and not connected to our emails. We drove 8+ hours today in altitude.

Hi,
She must not smoke.
Keep moving her legs during the journey and after every 2 hours sitting, she must walk for a few minutes.
Maintain hydration.
