Spider-like veins in a friend's legs...is this normal for 13-year olds?

Spider-like veins in a friend's legs...is this normal for 13-year olds?
They've been there for about 4 months, and the doctor said it was because she (a friend) was gaining more muscle, and was extremely hydrated. However, she quit all of her sports before this occured and was not hydrated....is her doctor stupid or does she have some sort of condition....in case you were wondering other medical stuff, she pulls her knee a LOT (omigosh you have NO idea) and also has these random swollen glands on the right side of her body. Could there be something wrong with her??? Only people who have medical experience respond please....WILL PICK BEST ANSWER!!!!!

  1. i have had spider veins ever since i can remember( im 20) there is nothing wrong with them, like yes they look funny on us younger people but its nothing. the dr is probly right and not stupid, is she really drinking those 8 cups of water a day? and as you get older ur body will gain more muscle, which could be the cause. but they are their to stay
