How to relief a congested vein from prolonged standing? or will it disappear on its own?

Elevate legs: Best way to relieve edema and/or varicose veins aggravated by prolonged standing is to sit & elevate your legs. if you must stand (perhaps due to employment requirements), consider wearing support hose, which are much more compressive than simple stockings which are really stretchy & typically of no use in this setting.

VEIN RX.: An enlarged leg vein may cause pressure, aching or heaviness. This can easily be treated by elevation and support hose over the enlarged vein. If support hose does not help then you should see a vein specialist for a venous evaluation.
