What Are Varicose Veins?

The purpose of a vein is to return old, tired blood back to the heart so it can be reoxygenated. Because they usually have to work against gravity, veins have valves that prevent blood from flowing backward.

Varicose veins occur because the pressure on the veins causes them to become distended as valves fail. Valves normally prevent blood from flowing backward, but as they break down over time, it can become possible for blood to slide back towards the foot. This causes blood to pool in the veins and bulge and twist. Varicose veins can be easily seen because they lie close to the surface of the patient’s skin. In addition, pain, pitching, swelling, burning, and discoloration of the skin are common in victims of varicose veins.

What are Spider Veins?

Spider veins (or telangiectasia) are similar to varicose veins but smaller in size and closer to the surface. They show up as tiny red, blue, or purple tangles that resemble the delicate strands of a spider’s web. Sometimes, they appear on a patient’s face or nose. When they develop in the legs, they can cause symptoms such as heaviness, cramps, itching, and aching. They are often caused by hormonal fluctuations, pregnancy, weight gain, or genetics.
