I am sorry to hear about your concern but will be happy to assist you.
Varicose veins are usually caused by weak vein walls and valves. Inside your veins are tiny one-way valves that open to let the blood through, and then close to prevent it flowing backwards. Sometimes the walls of the veins become stretched and lose their elasticity, causing the valves to weaken.
Let's connect over a call so that we can discuss your concern in details and make a suitable treatment plan for you.

Painful varicose veins can be a sign of a more serious problem, such as a blood clot, an open sore or a skin infection. If you have a varicose vein that is becoming or has become painful, it could be a clue that something more serious is happening and you should see your doctor.

I am sorry to hear that you are still suffering. The cervical spinal problem can be discussed with neurosurgeon. There is no specific curative therapy for knee degenrative changes escept hot fomentation, analgesia and avoidance of excessive knee bending and maintaining a healthy body weight. However, there are some antispasmodics that can reduce muscle spasm.
