yes but what causes them?Any body have info on that?

When I asked my dr he said they are just little broken blood vessels...he told be sitting for long periods, sitting with legs crossed, weight gain, pregnancies, age, are just some of the causes. I sit at the computer with legs crossed most of the day for work…I have to remind myself not to cross my legs and to get up and walk around often. Doing this has reduced any new ones from popping up , but I have several on one leg that I’m going to have taken care of…I think I’m going to do the saline injection.
