What Causes Head Vein Prominence And Visibility?
Hi, may I answer your health queries right now ? Please type your query here...Hi. I noticed this last 2 days that the vein on my 11mos old baby s right side of the head is getting more and more visible. He is very active and his development is good. There is no symptoms of him feeling sick or getting weaker. But i worry so much that it might be a delayed effect from his several fall when he was younger (approx- 3-4mos ago) which he was ok and no injury. please help me with my worries...

the visible veins on head is due to softer skin.. which is normal at that young age. as your child grows,, fat gets deposit under skin and no veins will be visible by 2 years of age
