What are Varicose Veins?

Usually characterized by their bulging appearance, varicose veins most often occur in the legs. Although patients may be concerned about the appearance of their varicose veins they can also indicate problematic medical issues and discomfort.

Weakening valves in the veins can affect the speed at which blood travels throughout the body. As blood slows down, it may actually travel back down to the leg and pool in the veins. Pooling of blood leads to a build-up of pressure. This can lead to all sorts of complications, including swelling, itchy legs, unattractive discoloration, burning, and pain. After the valves collapse, varicose veins begin to develop their characteristic bulging, twisting appearance.

What are Spider Veins?

These smaller veins are usually purple, red, or blue in color. They get their name from their shape, which is similar to a spider’s web. Although they are smaller, spider veins can also cause issues such as cramping, a sensation of heaviness, aches, and itchiness. Some women will find themselves dealing with spider veins due to pregnancy while others develop spider veins as a result of changing hormones or weight gain. Like varicose veins, spider veins can also be hereditary.
