Should I Be Concerned About Prominent Veins?

The veins in my stomach area and my breasts are blue and much more visible than an hour ago. I am on my last dose of prednisone, daily Motrin, and I have 6 of 14 daily suprax left to take for a recent sinus infection. I am also on one daily dose of Omnaris nasal spray. Should this condition be a concern?
