A member asked:

Im in my 30s cause of weight i have some veins on leg but i notice what look like blue veins it they are round and its making me worry its something bad. what is this?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

It is not feasible to provide a meaningful opinion without additional history, and physical examination. Overweight is often associated with prominent or varicose veins. Lowing weight is imperative, not easy, but essential. Wish you good health!
