As the condition worsens, and the veins get larger, they become more obvious. Grade 2 varicose veins can be seen bulging through the mucosa of the vulva of vagina.

Hi thanks for answering to my post. I have had it for around 4 weeks now. I have not noticed any changes it has remained exactly the same. I did some research and came across vaginal varicose veins which are very similar in color to the thing I have. Should I consult my gynecologist or dermatologist??
