As we all know there many things that will cause leg pain; cramps, claudication, and varicose veins being just a few. If it continues, mention it to your GP when next you visit.
For sure Koala77

When I noticed them, I brought them up with the doctor immediately for her to look at. She wasn't very concerned in my case, but I don't experience pain from mine, and my father also has them so good chance there's a hereditary link for me.
