Myth Busters – Don’t cross your legs or you will get varicose veins
June 7, 2009
Ewww, I remember my mother telling me this.
This is most definitely a myth. You are not more prone to getting varicose veins if you cross your legs.
However, if your mother had them, you are more disposed to having them.
You’re also more at risk if you stand on your feet all day in the same position or sit in the same position all day. It’s important to get up, move around and keep your body moving, if you want to keep your pins in good shape.
