What Causes A Cluster Of Blue Veins On The Arm?
I am a 16 year old male. I box, I lift weights 5 days a week, and have recently changed my diet to one much lower in fat. In the past two weeks i have lost probably 10 pounds. Recently, probably within the last day, there appeared on my right bicep and right forearm a small, smooth textured cluster of blue veins, that does not tingle, itch or hurt. A picture of the bicep cluster: http://imgur.com/ITXrAV7 What is this?

Respected friend, hi I evaluated your query thoroughly. Dear it`s due to loss of subcutaneous fat planes as you are lossing weight by intention. veins are getting more prominent. and as you are boxing and lifting weight there is obvious more blood supply during the activities and making veins more visible. there are no other symptoms associated so nothing to worry. relax thanks dear regards bye take care enjoy boxing and weight lifting.
