Advocate Christ Medical Center specializes in the diagnosis and treatment of varicose veins and spider veins, which are among the most common disorders of the human body. For many of the 80 million Americans who suffer from varicose vein disease, the unsightly condition is simply a cosmetic concern. For others, though, varicose and spider veins can:
