Hello,
I read carefully your query and understand your concern.
The symptoms seem to be related to varicose veins.
I suggest using a painkiller such as Acetaminophen to relieve the pain.
I also suggest using compressive stockings to relieve the inflammation and swelling.
If the symptoms continue, you should consult a doctor for further evaluation.
Hope my answer was helpful.
If you have further queries feel free to contact me again.
Kind regards!
