What Are Spider Veins?

Spider veins are thin, visible blood vessels that form near the surface of the skin. They often appear as red, blue, or purple lines in a web-like pattern. Spider veins commonly occur on the legs and face and are caused by weakened or damaged valves in the veins. While they are typically painless, they can sometimes cause mild discomfort or itching. Factors such as genetics, hormonal changes, prolonged standing, and sun exposure increase the likelihood of developing spider veins. Although they are not medically dangerous, many people seek treatment for cosmetic and confidence-related reasons.
