Are varicose veins and spider veins the same? While varicose veins and spider veins often have the same cause, there are differences between them. Varicose veins are large, raised, swollen blood vessels that twist and turn. They can be seen and felt right under the surface of the skin. Varicose veins usually occur in the legs and feet. They can cause a feeling of heaviness, discomfort, swelling or skin discoloration in affected areas. Spider veins are smaller, red, purple, an...d blue vessels that also twist and turn. Like varicose veins, spider veins are easily visible through the skin. Generally, spider veins are smaller and thinner than varicose veins and appear directly under the skin surface. Spider veins are sometimes also referred to as telangiectasias, or sunburst varicosities.
