A member asked:

I have 2 blue veins that just showed up on my face, on the left side of my jaw. where would these suddenly come from? is it anything to worry about?

No, : I would not worry but to be an the safe side have your family physician check you out clinically making sure there is not lymph node or parotid gland enlargement. If not, which i believe will be the case, and if bothers you it could be closed by injection sclerotherapy!

Multiple reasons.: Facial veins like hand veins often change in size throughout the day and is due to many factors such as hydration, sun exposure, hereditary, heat, physical activity, stress and anything that would make the veins dilate or constrict.There are also some medical conditions such as heart failure, kidney and liver failure which could contribute but not in a healthy 28Y.O.See a vein specialist for exam.
