Hi ! Good evening. I am Chat Doctor answering your query. Although it needs a physical examination before opining on it, from the history it could be the veins of your leg getting dilated while squatting. This could occur when the veins are abnormally dilated as in case of varicose veins. If I were your doctor, after a physical examination, I would advise you for a Doppler ultrasound of both lower limb vessels to confirm or rule out the diagnosis. Further management would depend on the physical findings and investigation reports. I hope this information would help you in discussing with your family physician/treating doctor in further management of your problem. Please do not hesitate to ask in case of any further doubts. Thanks for choosing Chat Doctor to clear doubts on your health problems. I wish you an early recovery. Chat Doctor.
