Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
My son has what looks like varicose veins appear on his right forearm for the past week. They come and go in severity. He says his arm hurts when it is pushed on. He is arm went numb today at school. We went to his pediatrician tonight who said it looked an sounded like Fifth Disease. I looked that up just now. It doesn t look anything like that and he hasn t had any of those other symptoms. Thoughts on what it could be?
