Is it veins, a bruise, or something else?

@fourof5zs It's not painful at all. I agree I wish we could share pictures but it's a purplish-red bruise that kind of looks like a spider web or veins. It disappears when you rub it but comes back quickly.

It probably is spider veins. Most of the time they are harmless. Sometimes they can be signals of other things going on in your body. such as hormonal changes, chronic venous insufficiency, a problem with the liver and other things. So a good thing to talk about with your pcp.

crazy, it probably is spider veins. I don't know why I didn't think of it. You've diagnosed yourself. I'm happy your family is looking out for you. https://theveinlab.com.au/spider-veins-in-the-ankle-and-feet/
