A member asked:
I just noticed some purple veins on the side of my stomach and on the side of my boobs and i don't drink or smoke should i be worried?

Visible veins: There isn't anything to worry about. Are they really veins, or possibly purple stretch marks from losing weight rapidly? Veins are usually purple or blue in color, and can be right under the skin where they can be seen. They are normal parts of your body. Don't worry. Good for you for not smoking or drinking!
