Help, advice for a leg problem!?!
Question:
Help, advice for a leg problem!?
My daughter is 12 and she has this weird rash- type thing on her thighs and hips. I know they aren't stretch marks because she is fit and she's only twelve, but what is it? Her grandmother says that they are buldging veins from exercising too much, and that if she doesn't stop, they will extend down her legs. She also says that this will cause her to get surgeery for varicose veins. I want the best for her, but I can see that she's very insecure and scarred. She thinks that they are stretch marks and that if she doesn't exercise, they will become larger and her thighs and hips will become huge! I'm scarred for my daughter. PLEASE HELP! I don't know what is going on, and frankly, it frightens me. DOCTORS MORE THAN WELCOME!!
Answers:
Call the doctor... I'm trying to think what I has when I was younger.
Is it red and scaly? Then it could be exema. Check WebMD.com or something... but CALL YOUR DOCTOR!!
