Are spider veins on stomach/arms/back normal?

KAB1983
I know spider veins on legs are common, and I've always had those. However, I've noticed a few on my arms/stomach. Is this normal? They're very tiny, but they're worrying me because I always thought of spider veins as a leg problem, or something face with sun exposure. I should mention I've very very fair skinned.
