John,

Last year my naturopath had me take Quercetin for an allergy problem. It helped with that and I noticed ( a side effect?) that my spider veins shrank considerably. I had some places so bad that my leg looked bruised. Now, I have a couple of spots on my outer thighs. I had spider veins since high school. I never thought to mention it to the ND, but when I read your post I remembered the Quercetin. Now I just take it seasonally for allergies, but then I was taking it daily.

Just an idea

Hi Pat:

 

Along with what has been already brought forth to your attention on

varicous veins.. here is some thoughts on it by Dr. Christopher..

Varicose Veins

 

Oak bark is used in concentrated tea form. To concentrate, strain

the finished tea and then simmer down the liquid to half its original

amount. Flannel is then dipped into the concentrated oak tea,

wrapped around the malfunctioning area, covered with plastic, and

left on all night. This is done six days a week with one day of

rest, with the program repeated until pressure is gone and the

desired relief has been obtained.

 

One of our students in the Provo, Utah area visited a lady who was

suffering from varicose veins so severely that she had difficulty

walking or standing for even a few moments, or even sitting down with

her feet on the floor. At night the throbbing and pain would be so

intense that she would have to elevate her legs for relief; then, in

15 or 20 minutes, the throbbing and pain of the elevated legs would

become so painful that she would have to lower her legs again.

Consequently, this woman could get no more than 20 to 30 minutes of

sleep at a time. Upon seeing such suffering, our student told her

friend about the healing properties of oak bark tea, which she had

recently learned about in a lecture. The friend said, " Use anything

you have to help, this is unbearable. " So our student went home,

prepared the tea and applied it to the victim's afflicted limbs.

Following instructions, she took gauze and daubed on the tea,

allowing it to dry. Another coat was added to the entire area of

both legs. She planned to apply the 10 or 12 coats recommend lightly

bandaging the legs and allowing the oak tea residue to be absorbed

into the skin. It has been found that this procedure would give

relief, and ofttimes would lessen the dark vein and/or phlebitis

color by 20%. However, after only six coats of tea, the patient said

she was drowsy and would like to doze off a few minutes, and asked

out student to return and finish later. The husband said, " Oh, she

never sleeps but a few minutes, never over a half hour. " Upon this,

our student went home, with the agreement to return when her patient

awakened. That was around 9:00 - 10:00 in the evening. To the

surprise and joy of everyone, the woman slept all night and woke up

the next morning feeling refreshed. She was given more treatments

and received complete relief.

 

We find that it is best to use wet flannel or other kinds of non-

synthetic cloth soaked in the fomentation. These should be left on

all night. For the leg area, white cotton or wool socks or stockings

soaked in the tea, pulled over the afflicted area and covered with

plastic wrapping make good fomentation material. Cut the toe end off

a stocking and it can be pulled up onto the knee or other parts of

the leg area for more localized treatment.

 

To clean and feed the veinous structure internally as well as

externally, one fourth cup of oak bark tea in three fourths cups of

water (distilled is preferred) may be used three or four times a

day. With each cup of tea, it is best to take one half teaspoon or

more of cayenne to speed up the action. The cayenne may be taken in

capsule form or mixed in half a glass of water.
