Most people have...: ...visible veins under their tongues. If she has bleeding or other concerning symptoms, make an appointment now. Otherwise, ask her doctor at her next routine office visit. If she's beyond the "well child check up" age, schedule general check up for her. Best wishes. Dr. Anne.

Normal: Save the question for anytime you go in for a real illness.This is a normal finding.The veins do not always have the same appearance on both sides.
