The exact cause of spider veins is not perfectly clear, but some common aspects, such as heredity, pregnancy, aging, and sun damage, are huge contributing factors. The most affected areas on the face are around the nose, cheeks and chin, and in whites of the eyes.
The symptoms may be relieved by elevating the legs, wearing compression stockings to provide support, walking or taking pain medications. Over time, the increased pressure in the vein leads to inflammation of the vein wall. This can cause itching over the affected varicose veins. It also can cause damage to the tissues surrounding the areas of highest pressure â a condition called Chronic Venous Insufficiency.
