Breast vein

I have an OBGYN appointment scheduled for the 13th but i have extreme health anxiety and have convinced myself this is cancer.

I noticed a new vein on the underside of my right boob. It comes from my areola and splits into three different lines. The veins don't hurt, they are not hard, and they are not protruding out of my skin. I do have a couple veins on the top side of my breast, but I'm just wondering if the underside can be normal as well. Am I freaking out for no reason?

    Nichole, please dont worry. A visible vein on a breast is quite common. Some ladies have lots of them. They show up even more if you are very pale skinned.
