Hi thanks for using HCM.
Exploding veins, terrible itching suggeste varicose veins. Surgery is the best choice for varicose vein. You can consult your surgeon discuss and get operated for it. Till then get bandaged completely. For itching apply glycerine and take antihistamine like Tab. Loratidine. This will reduce your symptom.
Hope I answered your question. Wish you good health.
