Dear Ahmad,
2005 means , 5 years back.
Swelling over feet and leg, may be due to many other reasons , except Varicose vein.
If the swelling is causing pain while
1)  squeezing the calf muscles around the knees,
2)  moving the great toe of the foot,
                   then we can still co-relate with Varicose vein.
Else its related to lymphatic obstruction, for which we need to -
1) Keep the limb elevated , while sleeping,sitting
2) Massage of the limbs.
3) Control the body weight.
4) Rule out heart problems.

If still , you are thinking in terms of varicose veins, then a Doppler scan would be helpful.
Regards..
