That's a real challenge. Support stockings might help. Have you checked out endovenous laser ablation? It's a procedure that your local surgeon might do to help with your varicose veins.
There are treatments done at home that have been used like horse chestnut extract, cayenne, Vitamins A, C, E, and zinc. There are compression stockings that can be very effective. Elevation of the legs may help if patients are able. There are physicians who specialize in vascular care who utilize methods to sclerose veins like laser, hypertonic saline, and other methods. Some may benefit from surgical approaches like vein stripping. There is evidence supporting exercise and weight loss.
