While both varicose veins and spider veins affect circulation, they differ in appearance, severity, and treatment options. Understanding the difference can help you choose the right care.

  • Varicose veins: Large, bulging, often painful veins, usually in the legs.
  • Spider veins: Small, web-like red or blue veins close to the skin.
  • Varicose veins often cause discomfort; spider veins are usually cosmetic.
  • Both can be treated with modern, minimally invasive procedures.
