Varicose veins: Varicose veins are common in pregnancy, and can cause pain as pregnancy advances. Severe pain which may be accompanied by increase discomfort with walking, should be seen by your OB provider to be certain it is not a "deep vein thrombus" (DVT). Treatment for such should be initiated immediately.
