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.
Could Popping Up Of Veins In Left Leg, Forearams And Biceps Indicate Blood Clots?
In the last 2 weeks the veins in my left leg are popped up but my right is fine. Also I just had the veins in my forearms and hands stand up like I had rubber bands around both of my biceps and was about to give blood. They both felt like they were asleep but was walking around when it suddenly happened. I m 43 and just wondering what is going on and am I in any danger of blood clots or major circulatory problems.
The dilated veins over leg, forearm and biceps do indicate various possible issues such as: - Physiological changes post exercise or stress - Circulatory disturbances as high blood pressure - Proximal part compression related - Others
There does not seem to part of possible blood clots in this regard as majority of the cases do not present with popping of blood vessels.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Bhagyesh V. Patel, General Surgeon
