Lesser Saphenous: and its proximal tributaries. Do you have varicosities in that area? Thanks for trusting HealthTap!

Depends on the part:: or level of the muscles, whether its in the upper , middle or lower end of the muscles. Some of the names will include: Ischial veins, veins along the sciatic nerve, Muscular veins which are generally unnamed; and at the lower end, there will be the Gennicular Veins, as well Popliteal and femoral veins. Most of them communicate with each other or drain into one other. I hope this is helpful!!
