Veins Visible in Breasts?

Question

Hi, lovely ladies! I'm 16 years old. And I am fairly pale. I've been able to see the veins in my breasts before. But now they're a lot more visible. And I can clearly see the circles that the big veins make around my areolas. Also, my breasts, especially around the nipple area, are itchy sometimes. And I noticed a "bruise" close to my left nipple a few months ago. I don't feel any lumps. And it doesn't hurt at all. I was just wondering if any of these things were normal? Thanks!

Answer

Well, I've had this same sort of thing.

For my itchy nipples and stuff, I've been able to trace it to either an allergic reaction or dry skin every time. One time my dog rubbed up against one while I was drying off from a shower and oh my god it was so itchy. She's never bothered my allergies before, but I guess maybe nipples and that area are more sensitive. Try some hydrocortisone cream or lotion on them and see if that improves it at all. Mine only ever lasted for a day or two. Feels really weird to be lotioning up my nips, but whatever works, right? 😂😂
And as for the paleness and bruising, been there, done that. I've always bruised easily. Lots of times I'll just bump into something at work and bam, there's a big ol bruise on my boob. Sometimes it's so bad that I'm glad nobody can see them because it seriously looks like someone's been beating me. But it's caused by something like my dog walking on them or me running into something. And I have always been able to see my veins very well because they're dark purple and I'm the color of sour cream. It used to bother me, but they've been around for so long now that I don't even notice them much anymore. I have noticed too that if mine are growing, my veins look more pronounced.

If you don't feel lumps and they don't feel sore or hurt, you're probably okay. Boobs are weird sometimes, but I don't think any of those things are something to worry about.
