A member asked:
Could showing veins in chest be caused by stress?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No.: They might be caused by holding your breath or yelling or other physical exertion but stress alone shouldn't cause them. If you have veins in your chest showing for no reason - see your doctor. This may be a sign of a deeper blockage such as superior vena cava syndrome.
