Ok, there are limits from not having an examination. Veins often look funny. If there is a difference between the arms then it would be more likely to mean something. Venous clots in the arms are kind of rare. The whole arm swells up like a balloon and is quite alarming in these rare situations and there is usually something else going on to cause it (trauma, clotting issues, etc.).

Then, lying on some structures irritates them. This is common. Most people have a little of this sometime. Neck problems or wrist problems make it likely to happen to someone all the time. A wrist brace often helps.
