What Causes Visible Veins Near Temples With Stuffy Nose?

I just noticed my 5 year old daughter has noticeable veins near her temples. She has a stuffy nose. Could this be why? Or is this something to be worried about? She is 43 inches tall and about 42-43 lbs. She has reflux but is otherwise very healthy.

Hi.... is it common for fair skinned people for veins to be visible near the temple. This is because of the thin skin. There's nothing to worry about it, except when she has got severe headache similar to migraine. If this is not there please do not worry about the veins.
