Why Does Atlanta Need A Spider Vein & Varicose Vein Specialist?
Up to 60% of all Americans suffer from a vein disorder such as spider veins or varicose veins.
The cause of spider veins is uncertain, but include factors that weaken vein valves include aging, obesity, leg injury, and prolonged standing. Spider veins on the face of a fair-skinned person can occur from exposure to the sun.
Varicose veins often cause discomfort and look unattractive. Left untreated, varicose veins usually enlarge and worsen over time. They can cause the legs and feet to swell. Leg muscles may feel fatigued or throb and cramp at night. The skin at or around the spider veins or varicose veins can itch or burn, and can occasionally lead to more serious problems.
