What are Spider Veins?
If you've started to notice that you have thin, thread-like red lines along your legs, you may be experiencing spider veins. Formally known as telangiectasia, spider veins are caused by tiny blood vessels widening and forming clusters under the skin that cause their signature web-like appearance. While most patients who have spider veins do not experience any discomfort, some patients do report mild pain and itching in addition to their red thread-like patterns.
