Veins help regulate your body temperature. When the body temperature is too warm, the veins will pop out. Veins will also be more prominent in those who have less body fat, and in the elderly because their skin is thin.

In varicose veins, these valves have stopped working. Varicose veins can be potentially dangerous and can lead to blood clots. I'm pretty sure surgery is the only fix.
