Varicose veins are abnormally large and twisted blood vessels. While any of your superficial veins — veins close to the surface of your skin — can become enlarged, varicose veins tend to appear most commonly in your legs. They look purple, contorted, and swollen, and they’re larger than the thin, red spider veins, which are caused by different conditions. Varicose veins are often no more than a cosmetic concern. They’re unsightly and can cause you embarrassment about your appearance, which is sometimes enough to seek treatment. But they do occasionally cause discomfort and pain. Left untreated, painful varicose veins can contribute to more severe problems.
