A member asked:

My 3yr old has very prominent bilat neck veins, constant, not just when crying/exercising. fit & well. nuchal fold 4.7 in utero but normal foetal echo?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Careful cardiac exam: What you describe CAN be perfectly normal but to be sure please take your son to the pediatrician and point the veins out. If he were my patient I would be performing a thorough cardiac exam and possibly ordering an echocardiogram to look for any condition that might be causing pulmonary hypertension
