Spider veins, also known as telangiectasias or thread veins, can commonly affect the ankles. This condition occurs when small blood vessels near the surface of the skin dilate, causing noticeable red, blue, or purple web-like patterns. To prevent spider veins on the ankles, it is recommended to maintain a healthy weight, avoid prolonged standing or sitting, elevate the legs when possible, and incorporate regular exercise into your routine.
