Varicose and spider veins are very common and affect about 30% of the population. There are three common types which are frequently seen in combination. ‘Spider veins’ are the finest and are usually fed by larger ‘reticular veins’, which are under the skin. ‘Varicose veins’ are the largest type and often bulge above the skin surface, usually due to a weakness in the vein wall. There are many symptoms associated with varicose veins, which include heaviness, burning, aching, stinging, throbbing, restless legs and leg cramps.
