What are Spider Veins?

Spider veins are small, dilated blood vessels near the surface of the skin that appear as red, blue, or purple lines. They often occur on the legs and result from weakened valves or increased pressure in the veins. This condition may indicate an underlying venous problem. StrideCare’s vascular specialists offer tailored treatments for cases of symptomatic and asymptomatic spider veins.
