Hi Frank
Welcome to HealthcareMagic.
Localized swelling of veins could be due to any swelling or any obstruction.I advise you to visit your General surgeon and get it examined and evaluated.I would like to have information about any other symptoms like engorged veins anywhere else on your body or headaches or eye pain .How long do you have them since.Please leave the details as a reply to this comment.
Take care.
