Is this a varicose vein or something worse?

    Pretty sure it's not. (I'm no expert) but varicose veins are fairly common and seldom end with death

    A teaspoon of refined sugar! Also, 1/4 cup OJ!

    Well my legs look like that and it started 10 years ago and I'm still alive and kicking! However it would probably be a good idea to check with your doctor for a professional opinion if it is concerning you.

    Just within the past year or so and just this one below my knee. So glad to know it's not serious, but I guess I should get my vitals checked soon.
