Do these veins look like a medical concern? (Photo)

Question

Hi, I have very prominent blue veins on my skin and am very pale. However, I have these veins and they seem to be more prominent than others. Is this normal? Or is this a medical concern Please help.

The veins pictured are reticular veins. They are of no medical concern. If desired, those veins can be treated for cosmetic purposes with sclerotherapy but if they don't bother you, they don't need to be treated.
