Spider Angiomata

Description:

Spider angiomata, also known as spider nevi or spider telangiectasias, are small red skin lesions characterized by a central red spot with tiny blood vessels radiating from it like spider legs. These formations are commonly found on the skin's surface and are often associated with liver disease, hormonal imbalances, or certain medications.

Sample Sentences:

• She noticed a few spider angiomata on her chest, which made her suspect an underlying liver problem.
• The doctor diagnosed the patient's spider nevi as a result of the hormonal changes during pregnancy.
