A couple of years ago I started developing spider veins rapidly. I'm only twenty three years old! I stand at my job for long hours, but I'm not just getting them on my thighs. I've got one coming in on my stomach and some more on my face. I'm really terrified. I heard from someone birth control can cause that and I've been taking it for a couple of years. Is this true and what can I do to help prevent more from comming in? Does anyone know how much spider veins removal costs? Thanks.
