A member asked:
Can spider angiomas result be caused by liver damage from drinking too much?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: The presence of these vascular skin changes is one of the peripheral manifestations of liver- disease...Although not all angiomas are related to liver disease, there presence in a patient with other signs of liver disease is additive to the diagnosis.
