Spider veins are small surface veins that often appear on the legs and can cause aching, heaviness, or fatigue. At Core Alliance Vein Specialists, we help you understand and treat them.
What Are Spider and Reticular Veins?
Relieve Leg Heaviness and Surface Veins
Spider veins and reticular veins are common forms of superficial vein disease caused by weakened vein walls and faulty valves. Spider veins are tiny red, blue, or purple veins that appear close to the skin’s surface, often forming web-like patterns. Reticular veins are larger, flatter blue or green veins that sit slightly deeper and frequently act as feeder veins for spider veins. Both may be associated with leg aching, heaviness, burning, cramping, or fatigue.
Signs & Symptoms of Spider Veins
Spider veins may appear gradually, but they often come with noticeable changes in how your legs look and feel.
Common signs and symptoms may include:
- Thin red, blue, or purple veins visible beneath the skin
- Web-like or branching vein patterns on the legs
- Aching or soreness after long periods of standing
- Heaviness or fatigue in the legs by day’s end
- Mild burning, throbbing, or itching sensations
- Worsening appearance or discomfort over time

Spider Vein Treatment at Core Alliance
Sclerotherapy
At Core Alliance Vein Specialists, we treat spider veins with sclerotherapy, a minimally invasive in-office vein procedure. During treatment, a specialized sclerosant solution is carefully injected into the affected vein. This solution gently irritates the inner lining of the vein, causing it to collapse and seal shut. Over time, your body absorbs the closed vein, and blood reroutes to the healthier veins nearby. The result is improved blood circulation and a clearer appearance on the legs.
