Spider veins and varicose veins may look similar, but they are not the same.
Spider veins are usually small, flat, and often a cosmetic concern. Varicose veins, on the other hand, are enlarged, bulging veins that may cause pain, heaviness, swelling, or discomfort and can indicate underlying vein disease.
Knowing the difference is important because early diagnosis can help prevent complications and ensure timely treatment.
