The smaller version of varicose veins are referred to as spider veins. Spider veins are often red or blue and closer to the skin showing up as jagged branches of a tree or as “spider webs.” There are many causes for spider veins including hormone changes, exposure to the sun, and injuries. While venous disease cannot be prevented entirely, it may be beneficial for you to maintain normal weight with regular exercise and wear support hosing. When you are resting, prop your legs up higher than your hear. When you go outside, use sunscreen because sun exposure can certainly lead to spider veins on your nose and cheeks.
