Question

Why do my hands look older then I am?

Community Answer

Hands often take a lot of abuse from activities and from frequent washing (as well as dishwashing and potentially chemicals in cleaning products), and they don't tend to be cared for as much as one's face. Gloves, sunscreen, avoiding harsh chemicals, and keeping your hands well moisturized can all help prevent their premature aging.

Question

Why do my hands have veins popping out on the back of my hands? What can I do about this?

Community Answer

Veins popping out are perfectly normal. If you don't want this to happen, try gaining some weight so the veins are covered with some fat.
