What Causes Throbbing Of Blood Vessels?
My daughter has been experiencing throbbing of blood vessels in her forearms and thighs. It does not hurt but is disconcerting. It also seems to occur in other parts of her body. Has been occurring for about a month. Do you have any thoughts about what might be going on?

Hello, Welcome to Ask a doctor services. I have read your query.
Throbbing of the blood vessels occurs commonly in Phlebitis. In superficial vein phlebitis patients usually complain of burning & throbbing veins in the legs & sometimes in the arms.
Neglect may complicate to medical conditions like varicose veins, etc. You are suggested to get clinically examined by a GP. Get Blood & required Imaging tests done. Get treated the factors causing the symptoms.
Hope I have answered your question. Take care.
