What Causes Swollen And Painful Veins On Elbow And Arm?
I have recently noticed 2 blue veins that petrude on my right shin, causing discomfort - now the past 2 days i have developed a large, swollen, slightly painful vein on the inner elbow on my right arm, this has never happened before, is it anything to worry about? Is it a coincidence its all occurring on the same side of my body?

hi
this could be due to varicose vein
varicose vein is a condition where your vein becomes dilated and tortous .
i would suggest kindly get a Doppler USG done of both legs and focus on the lower limb vascular structure.
