Why’s Does Blood Pool In My Hands When Walking Or
Question: Why’s does blood pool in my hands when walking or standing. Palms look weird with maroon and slight bluish.
Brief Answer:
It’s normal
Detailed Answer:
Hello
After going through the medical query raised by you I can understand your concern and I would like to tell you that in majority of the cases this is a normal phenomena and can happen due to following reasons
1. Effect of gravity
2. Hot outside temperature causing more blood to flow out there to cool the temperature.
3. Veins are more superficial here due to less fat so they are more prominent.
As veins have deoxygenated blood so the hand appears more maroon or bluish in colour.
Kind Regards
