Telangiectasias or spider veins show poppy and wide veins through the skin. It is important to get immediate medical care and attention to treat spider veins as they are usually accompanied by involuntary throbbing in the limbs, which can get uncomfortable over time. Usually, this body condition is found in senior citizens above 50 years of age, but sometimes, younger peeps can also get diagnosed with it (1). Keep scrolling to know some symptoms, risks, and home remedies for spider veins.

What Causes Spider Veins?

Spider veins are common in both men and women.

They occur as a result of weakened valves in the veins, which otherwise enable blood flow through the veins. Damaged valves result in the swelling of veins, and these develop into spider veins (2). Some of the most common causes of this condition include:

  • Aging
  • A family history of spider veins (heredity)
  • Professions that require standing for a long time
  • Contraceptive pills
  • Pregnancy
  • Tight clothing
  • Increased BMI (Obesity)
  • Any prior history of blood clots
  • Constipation

Other than being unsightly to look at, spider veins may also be accompanied by a series of symptoms that can become bothersome in the long run (3).

Key Takeaways

  • Spider veins are caused due to weakened valves in the veins that swell and become visible on the skin.
  • It is commonly noticed in individuals who are pregnant, obese, or indulge in smoking.
  • Apple cider vinegar is an effective home remedy in treating spider veins as it helps increase blood flow in the affected area.
  • The magnesium content in Epsom salt can aid in reducing the appearance of spider veins and tackle inflammation.
  • Massage the affected area with coconut or castor oil to increase blood circulation.

Symptoms Of Spider Veins

  • Itching around the affected area
  • Aching legs
  • Unusual restlessness in the legs
  • Ulcers on the skin
  • Rashes around the affected area
  • Veins paining on contact
  • Changes in the skin around the ankles or calves

But aren’t these symptoms similar to that of varicose veins? How are spider veins different? Let’s find out below.

Spider Veins Vs. Varicose Veins

The two most commonly occurring vein conditions are spider veins and varicose veins.

Many often get confused between the two types. To help you decide which of the two you are actually suffering from, here are some of major differences between spider veins and varicose veins.

Spider VeinsVaricose Veins
These are tangled groups of blood vessels that occur just below the surface of your skin.This condition is much more unsightly in appearance than spider veins.
They often resemble a spider web or the branches of a tree.Varicose veins are often bumpy and rope-like in appearance.
They may be red, blue, or purple and are often present on the thighs, lower legs, and face. They can also occur on your breasts, ankles, and feet.Like spider veins, varicose veins can be blue, red or even flesh-colored in some cases. They usually occur in the back of the calves or on the inner legs between the groin and the ankles.
They hardly cause any other symptoms. But in some cases, spider veins can cause an itching or burning sensation.Common symptoms of varicose veins include leg pain, cramps, fatigue, heaviness in the legs, swelling, itching, burning, and even ulcers in severe cases.
Spider veins are caused by a medical condition called venous insufficiency.As in the case of spider veins, the main cause of varicose veins is venous insufficiency.

The following are the factors that can put an individual at a higher risk of developing spider veins.

Who Is At A Risk Of Developing Spider Veins?

Certain factors can increase your risk of developing spider veins. They include:

  • A family history of spider veins or deep vein thrombosisi  The process by which blood clots form in blood vessels. They obstruct blood flow and can cause a stroke or heart attack.
  • Obesity
  • Pregnancy
  • Standing or sitting for long periods
  • Tight clothing
  • Smoking
  • Exposure to excessive heat and stress
  • Gender (Women are at a higher risk than men.)

To treat spider veins and their symptoms at the earliest, it is important to get yourself diagnosed first. How is that done?

How To Diagnose Spider Veins

Your doctor may perform a physical examination that involves looking at your legs while you are standing to check for any swelling.

You may also need to get an ultrasound test done to check whether your vein valves are functioning normally and if there are any blood clots.

Your dermatologist can also suggest some treatments and follow-up procedures to improve the appearance of spider veins. They include:

  • Laser therapy – This targets the wider vessels and seals them.
  • Surgery to remove the widened vessels.
  • Sclerotherapy – It involves injecting a chemical into the inner lining of the blood vessels to cause damage to it.

As spider veins are more of a cosmetic concern than medical, many affected individuals are seen opting for surgery to get rid of their unsightly appearance. However, following some simple and natural remedies, along with a few lifestyle changes, can help deal with this condition without having to go under the knife (4).
