What causes spider veins all over stomach?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
The body is covered in veins, spider veins form on the stomach for a variety of reasons. These can range from lifestyle and fashion choices like compression garments to more serious cases like esophageal varices (bulging veins in the tube that connects the esophagus and stomach, usually caused by liver disease or a blood clot) which require different treatment methods.
