Dr. Michael Ryan with Missouri Vein Care answers the question "Why do I have blue veins on my legs?" In some cases, visible blue veins can be a very normal occurrence depending on the pigmentation of your skin. Lighter skin shows veins more easily than darker skin. However, it can also be connected to the presence of a vein condition. Blood that is stagnant and causing pressure on the veins of the leg pools and becomes more visible. This is most commonly seen on the thighs and inner calf area. A vein screening will help sort out whether or not a vein circulation condition is present.
