Telangiectasia. It is starting to affect his work as an architect. His work involves standing for prolonged periods of time at a construction site. On examination, it is found that he has visible dilated, tortuous veins on his right calf. There are no other skin changes and there does not appear to be any calf swelling. He adds that he has had that for several years but that it has never caused him any problems until recently.
