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.
I had an MRI of my neck which shows asymmetry in external jugular vein with left larger than right. I wanted to know what causes that and what is treatment. I am 59 and am not aware of any health problems. I exercise regularly. I did have numbness in my left leg with pain and they did a sonogram and did not find anything.
Hello dear Greetings Regarding your MRI report that showed your left jugular vein larger than the right I will suggest you have developed a varicose vein with possible Aneurysm
In view of this please see a cardiovascular surgeon specialist for expert management
Meanwhile please take tablet Tylenol for the leg pain
I hope this helps Regards
