What Could Visible Veins On The Body Indicate?
My 8 year old daughter has very visible veins in her legs arms abdomen and on her face.
You can even see the great saphenous vein in her midial malleolus and her leg. She has little darker skin.
Other than this she is a very active girl.
Please tell me what could it be.
