A member asked:
What does it mean if my veins seem to show more? i have darker skin but they are visible.

Enlarging veins: Veins can actually increase in size in relation to weightlifting or other types of exercise due to increased blood flow to the arms/legs. Veins can also become more apparent, though not actually enlarged, in the face of weight loss.
