What Causes My Calves To Be Blue?
12 Answers
From the back, it's really noticeable as is the line where it stops.
Trying to see a doctor is impossible, my Surgery has a list of ailments on their website so you can cure yourself and not bother them.
0.03% die of COVID, how many will die because they can't see a doctor?

Please ignore that link which is certainly inappropriate, frightening and in my opinion should be removed.
Firstly from what you say and the description you give is no idea.
You do not mention pain in you legs either at rest or when walking. You have not mentioned any underlying diseases from which you are suffering or any medication that you are taking.
Without those factors no reasonable diagnosis or comments can be entertained.
Please don't worry,

Both Mr. J2s legs are bluey from a couple of inches below the knee to just above his ankles --- they have been like that for over 30 years, so don't panic. It does mean what you have been told by others and right now we are fighting the NHS to get his veins injected to improve circulation and reduce the strain on his heart (much nagged for appt. is on Friday). He has a triple bypass and does not need any circulatory strain, thank you very much.
If you seek help in these early stages you may fare better than OH, who just accepted it, and now we fight leg ulcers etc. on a very boring, daily long-term basis with pressure bandaging etc. Much better to get it sorted out early. I repeat 'Don't Panic' but try to get it sorted before you get to this stage.

At the end of last week I was talking on the telephone to someone at a call centre, he was scheduled to have surgery on/for an aortic aneurysm that is past the critical stage. Then Covid hit and he now has no scheduled access to surgery - he referred to himself as a ticking time bomb (I knew a man who died during preparations for an operation, his aneurysm burst). A week earlier I was talking to someone who had a rash and called her GP, she got an appointment for within a few hours the same day. He is in the UK, she is abroad - the contrast tells me/us something.
KARL - we are even thinking about moving back to France because of the NHS. We have both had appointments just cancelled without recourse. OH was discharged before anything had been done about his veins! I got on the phone and persisted until I got this apptmt. tomorrow. I need a cataract removing urgently. I could scrape the cash together, but private hosps. are under contract to NHS.
Ah well, if necessary 'vive l'E.U.'. :(
