Suggest Treatment For Raised Vein In The Armpit And Swollen Hands
I have a vein in my right armpit that is raised where you can actually see it and definitely feel it. I don t want to say it is swollen because I have no clue how big that vein should be in the first place. It is not sore or tender to the touch. I have no pain in my armpit nor in my right arm, all I know is that I can see it and feel it. Also it comes and goes. The first time I noticed it was about 6 months ago and it stayed with me for a few days then went away. Then about 8 days ago, it returned and today it is gone. It has been difficult to get an appt with my doctor in enough time for him to actually see it. Maybe you know what this may be and/or what to do for it. Thanks.

Dear it can not be diagnose without seeing in person.Since there can be many reasons for raised vein or it could be lump or lymph node also.
I would suggest get routine check up done and visit a nearby Physician.Else you may upload pic here.
