Sorry all Idon't know what happened there. To continue I saw an old friend yesterday that I haven't seen for a while and he mentioned nicely of course that my veins were prominant in my hands. Must admit I hadn't noticed. But when someone brings it up I am now worrying. Just interested in any comments. Thanks x

Yes, veins in hands due to thinning of skin . Edward

Not usually anything to worry about - veins become more prominent as we age anyway, the subcutaneous fat around them lessens and they become more obvious together with the skin covering them thinning too.
