Suggest Treatment For Pain And Raised Vein On The Forearm
I have had a painful right arm with raised veins on the forearm. Tonight, my arm feels more painful than previously and the raised veins are covering my collar bone, the back of my upper arm as well as the forearm which hasn t changed. Should I be concerned?
Enlarged veins are may be due an obstruction to the flow of venous blood or due to any pressure. This leads to congestion in the arm and causes pain. You need to be examined by a doctor to rule out the causes for your symptoms. The treatment depend on the cause. Your doctor may ask for a scan.
Hope this helps.
