Varicose veins in groin/thigh, how to alleviate?

Can anyone suggest some relive for varicose veins on my right side where my thigh and groin meet. So not vulvar. The pain is unreal. This is my third pregnancy and they cane in much much earlier than the other two pregnancies. VERY debilitating. I have on my right leg behind my knee as well. That one is more tolerable and can be relived with compression hose. But the groin?! Help! I’m getting sad and not enjoying this amazing time of my life.

    I worked as a waitress through 34 weeks.  The only reason I stopped working was due to varicose veins on the inside of my legs.  They got to be so bad my doctor told me to stop working, sit/lay down more often or bedrest.  So I got the hint.  Besides that he recommended rest, lots of fluids.
