I'm 25 and recently diagnosed with Behcets. I've noticed varicose veins popping up all over my upper thighs.

I've had one spot since I was a teenager, but now there are a good bit more and they hurt. Any thoughts and suggestions would be helpful.

Hi Jade and welcome to the site. Are you in the UK and which consultants do you see and where. I'm asking because it's probably best is you speak with them about this problem and they can see it . Sorry I can't give you any answers but I'm sure somebody will have some info for you. Best advice I can give is for you to keep a diary of symptoms and take photos as by the time you get your appointments usually things have settled down. So these 2 ideas are useful for you to take with you and show the docs. Perhaps you should see your GP first and take it from there.

Hope things soon get sorted.

Hugs and Smiles
