Hi,

It is normal for some bluish veins to be visible over skin in light skinned people. If these are not dilated or painful (suggesting varicose veins), we need not worry. If you are in doubt, sending us a picture will help to clear the situation

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.



Regards,

Dr. Muhammed Aslam T. K., Pediatrician
