Spider veins aren’t just something you see—they can be something your body is trying to tell you. ⚠️
More than 50% of people with spider veins also have an underlying condition called venous reflux—a circulation issue that can only be detected with an ultrasound.
What’s happening beneath the surface? 👇
🔹 Vein valves weakening
🔹 Increased pressure in the veins
🔹 Slowed blood flow
🔹 Hormonal shifts
And for some people, symptoms follow:
🔥 Burning
💢 Itching
🦵 Leg fatigue
🌙 Restlessness
Spider veins can be an early sign that your vein health is changing. The earlier you catch it, the better you can manage it. 💡
