Green veins on arms?
2 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Appearance: They may appear green or blue through your skin color. It is normal even though our blood in our veins is red.

Green veins: Upper extremity veins are usually normal and rarely due to underlying pathology. The color is green or blue and this is normal.
