Veins on shins and calves pop out when exercising or walking on hot days.but they dont when taking a very hot shower. varicose veins?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Veins: Bulging of leg veins may be due to some insufficiency of vein valves causing sluggish emptying of blood filled veins. This may or may not eventually lead to appearance of varicose veins after some years. A vascular surgeon can evaluate and advise you best.
