Thick veins in legs

Thick veins in legs

Asked for Male, 27 Years

Ever since I started having severe allergy attacks my veins in legs have become thick and visible while walking. They become normal when I sit down but again appear while walking or running. I don't think it is varicose veins . Is it some form of atherosclerosis due to action of mast cells on blood vessels ?
