Hello,
This could be related to vascular insufficiency. Something like Varicose veins we may suspect but to confirm it we may need to undergo laboratory findings as your age is too young to this condition we cannot confirm on the virtual diagnosis. After a thorough investigation of the blood, urine and Doppler scan of the veins we can say what it could be. Sometimes it can be skin related issue as well but without having done any report we do not wish to give you a tension about giving any particular diagnosis.
Having a clinical examination and also laboratory investigation can help us understand the pathology and post which we can come to a conclusion.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Jay Indravadan Patel, Physical Therapist or Physiotherapist
