Acetaminophen (Tylenol and others) and ibuprofen (Advil, Motrin) can be used to treat a fever. Aspirin should not be used in children or adolescents to control fever. The prognosis for a fever depends on the cause. Most cases of fever are self-limited and resolve with treatment of symptoms.
Varicose veins look like swollen blue or dark purple veins, usually appearing on the legs and feet. For most people, they are only a cosmetic problem. If a varicose vein bursts, it can result in painful bruising and swelling.
Leg Vein Problems. Varicose veins are abnormally stretched or swollen veins that protrude from the surface of the skin. Generally found on the legs, varicose veins are the result of faulty vein valves or weak vein walls. Spider veins, or broken capillaries, are medically referred to as telangiectasia. They are dilated capillary veins less than 2mm in diameter that exist just below the surface of the skin on the legs or face.
