Veins in torso of a 4 year old boy that suddenly showed up

I May be overreacting but I was taking my 4 year old a shower tonight I noticed that he had veins on his torso that were very noticeable.. they weren’t there yesterday or the day before at least didn’t notice them . Want to see if it’s connected to something more serious or there is a reason for it

This could be a sign of liver disease and you should seek medical attention. His abdomen appears to be distended as well
