I have same question It happens a dilation of the arterioles.
Prostoglandins are chemical mediators. These are released from mammalian cells and effect the cells in their immediate viccinity. They produce what's known as an inflammatory response. Prostoglandins are found in cell membranes, they are released due to injury. They cause the dilation of small arteries and arterioles and increase the permeability of the capillaries. They affect neurotransmitters and blood pressure and hence pain sensation.
Almost all the veins and arteries constrict and dilate during heavy exercise. Even capillaries bring a flush to the face and skin by dilation.

Dilated capillaries are also known as broken blood vessels. When several capillaries come together they appear red or similar to a bruise. They are common on the legs.
Dilation of the pupil is known as mydriasis in medical terms. Miosis is the medical term for constriction of the pupil.
If our body overheats, capillaries beneath the surface of the skin widen to allow more blood to flow through them. The blood carries heat energy, which can then leave the body when we sweat. Hence we cool down. If we are too cold, the capillaries narrow to reduce the volume of blood passing through. This reduces the amount of heat that is lost, and so we don't freeze to death as easily.
