Can jeggings or skinny jeans damage your veins where you once had a superficial blood clot? they aren't super tight

Not likely: Check with your doc to evaluate your venous structures, and examine you. Doc may want to perform an ultrasound. You didn't mention any changes in your veins, shortness of breath, edema, pain, of other indicators suggesting pathology. See your doc, and reveal a more detailed history.
