Is it normal to have spider veins at my age?

Thats when mine started.   Standing on a hard surface for long amounts of time can make them appear.  (like a job like running a register, etc...)  Good luck. They suck, huh?

When I was small I had something similar. I don't know if this is the same. I had(have) something called a cavernous haemangioma, which is a BENIGN tumour of blood vessels which tend to bleed easily inside my right cheek. Its a nuisance but not serious. Hope you have the same as it's ok.

I am an alternative medicinal therapist and an ex nurse. Normal B/P is 120/80 depending on your age. If you are on medication then is proberly the cause, Have you seen your doctor about it. If it goes any higher you could end up in trouble. Go back and see your GP\n\nGloria(BSYA)

you're fine! Its normal for periods to get all out of whack at your age. I'm 20 and it still happens to me.

so? i weight lift a lot and my vein grew too, it's just because weigh lifting increases ur blood pressure while u r lifting which stretches the veins, plus with the protein supplements it gets worse, if it's like really bad like u can see a 1/2 inch pipe running doin his fore arm have him go to see a doctor

thats not true if you're skinny you can have it too.  if your bigger you might not have any, anyway drinking lots of water is good for that it helps with the circulation of the blood.

That's if a vein, artery or capillary opens. The blod clots, and a scar is usually formed.\nWith menstrual flow, there is no connection to any vein, there is no clotting, it's just a shedding of tissue that has blood in it. If a vein was involved, a 40 year old woman after 300 periods would be a mass of scar tissue!

This is concerning...I would see a doctor ASAP..could be a spider bite but not sure..some bites can lead to necrosis (sloughing off of tissue) so like I suggested better not to further postpone consultation with your doctor or the ER

It is quite normal.  If it isn't painful or extreme, don't worry about it.  If it is, see a doctor.

I don't know, but I have them too. I am 17, what I've heard is that they are just normal growth marks, and that they will go away as time goes by. I wouldn't be worried about it, in fact I am not about mines.

I believe there is a number of things that cause them, but the most effective treatment is laser treatment. I do not know the exact name of the treatment, it is also used for treating so called spider veins, but it's offered by a lot of plastic surgeons and upscale spas. Also you can find a dermatologist in your area and ask for a referral. I have a burst vessel on the bridge of my nose from a trauma and found out that laser treatment is the best way to get rid of it

That is known as arcus senilis and is extremely common in those of us over 40, but more pronounced in people with diabetes.  It is harmless, but you may want a checkup to reassure you and make sure you have no underlying diseases.

hey, Rock...\nwell, when you lift heavy, you cause blood to rush to the muscles your using, you know to deliver extra oxygen and nutrients.\nthis causes your veins to swell much more than they would if you were just sitting around being a log.\nalso, well, this happens more from cardio workouts, when you exercise over time, your body actually GROWS more capillaries (the smallest of veins) in order to deliver even MORE blood to muscles.\nhowever, you can't grow actual new veins, like the ones you see, those are only grown before you're born, basically.\njust keep lifting, sounds like you're already seeing results, the popping, sexy veins will just come naturally.\nyou go, Rock guy!

Sounds like blood pressure to me....and I am 40!  LOL....But you don't have to be "40" to get it.  If you are stressed alot, you can get it.  It is even hereditary.  It is also nothing to mess around with.  You should see your doctor and get checked.  ASAP.

I am 24 and will turn 25 next week.  I have SB and walk pretty much just fine.  My problems are mainly with my kidneys & bladder.  I do stumble sometimes and walk into things that I KNOW are right in front of me, but I figure it could be a lot worse, so I don't mind.

now a-days it's normal. My younger sis and I started @ a younger age than most she was 7 years old and I was 8 also and were 17 and 18 now. It's compleatly normal, we've even went to a doctor to make sure. If you think something is wrong with you go see a gynacoligist, they'll tell you. and answer any of your questions.
