Hi there, this is my first post here and am very nervous about my veins. I've been suffering with health anxiety for only around 6 weeks after an eye problem. I went to my GP today with a wealth of problems that I've noticed over these past few weeks and he put it down to anxiety, the symptoms were all to broad to be something serious, from muscle twitching to tiny pinprick red spots on my skin.
After the appointment I forgot to mention about my veins, I can't get an appointment over the christmas period so thought I'd ask here. I've noticed the my veins on my left wrist are very pronounced and can see them under the skin. Occasionally they pop up like varicose veins, this also happens with the veins on my hand. I also have a vein that is visible in my left bicep, not popping out just visible on the skin. Wondering if this is normal, they look so close to the surface I'm worried to rest my arm on the desk and pop them.
Again, wondering if this is normal, thanks in advance for any responses. Also have a fear of skin cancer. Noticed a lot of freckle/moles coming up on my arms recently (I'm 18, I hear that moles/freckles do grow at this age).
