VARICOSE VEINS
AND
SPIDER VEINS
Defined
: |
First let us
understand that both VARICOSE VEINS AND SPIDER VEINS are forms of
Benign Vascular Lesions also referred to as UNSIGHTLY VEINS.
SPIDER VEINS
:
As the name itself
suggests small veins stretching like a web under the skin from a dark
central point are called Spider Veins. These are from Red to Purple in
color and are believed to be caused by overexposure to sun. Spider Veins
can occur on any part of the body – face, hands, feet etc.
VARICOSE VEINS
:
Twisted, enlarged &
deformed veins are called Varicose Veins. Visually, Varicose Veins are
because they are large, dark in color, and tend to bulge. The widening
of veins occurs due to a weakness in the vein wall or problem with the
valves that regulate the flow of blood which cause stagnation of blood
rather then maintaining a good circulation. These Varicose veins can
occur on any part of the body but most often they are found in the legs,
commonly found along the inside of the leg, at the back of the calf and
at the ankles under the skin. As age advances and veins weaken the
chances of getting Varicose veins increases. It is a Myth that sitting
with crossed legs will prevent varicose veins.
