A vein does not supply blood to the penis, the vein takes blood away from the penis. Sometimes the veins are visible through the skin when blood circulation increases this is because there is More blood, the blood is what keeps the body warm, so more heat is generated when there is more blood and that enlarges the veins, vasodilation, and they appear closer to the skin surface.

The bottom of my tongue is normally purple. My naturopath tells me that it means my liver and gallbladder are stressed. My doctor tells me it means the veins on the bottom of my tongue are close to the surface.
I've never heard anything about lead poisoning.

If that's true then all my patients have it. I'm a dentist and that's a myth.

your friend is incredibly stupid and willing to share his stupidity with others.
Variations in color of veins/arteries depends upon the oxygenation of the blood going through them.
The end.
