Bulging blue veins on hands from beta blocker

[Cole8]

Vericose/bulging veins in my hands after taking 10mg propranolol for 1 week. I’ve been off of it for over 2 weeks now. Is this permanent damage to my veins?

I’m 28 and not on any medication.

Never heard of that.I'm on 20mg a day and haven't noticed a change.Check with your GP.

Could you be dehydrated. I did read many people are not drinking enough in lockdown.

[Cole8 in reply to Heythrop51]

Definitely not. Thanks tho

I have same in my veins. Do not take the medication.

[Cole8 in reply to Booklovingmomma]

Did yours ever get better? I have been off the medication for almost 3 weeks now

[Booklovingmomma in reply to Cole8]

Meant to say, I have been off that medication for quite some time so I dont think that had anything to do with it. I still do not have an answer for it yet. Hoping soon!! Good luck to you. Take care

I think mine was actually related to Raynauds. It apparently runs in my family and the propranolol must have brought it out in me a little

Hi guys, please be careful when advising others to stop taking their medication. Those are discussions to have with a health professional. Many thanks.

My latest suspicion is that I have Raynauds now since i guess it it runs in my family

I dont know much about that syndrome.
