3rd Trimester

Painful Varicose Veins

I am only 27 weeks, but I already have a painful varicose vein on the back of one of my legs.  I am a teacher and on my feet all day, which definitely does not help.  Luckily I will be on summer vacation for the last 8 weeks of this pregnancy, and will be able to stay off my feet a little more.  Does anyone have any tips to relieve the pain?  Also, do they usually go away after pregnancy, or will I need to get them zapped?  I did not experience this during my first pregnancy.  TIA!
