My veins are getting bulged in hands and legs once in a while, almost alternate days for last 15 days. They remain for 5 mins to 2 hours and go away and this repeats.
Anyone has any idea?
I have gone to many doctors, no one was able to satisfactorily answer
Just to add, I am diabetic for last 10 years with poor control and HBA1c of 11 2 months back. after that I took seriously and now it is 9
Very difficult to diagnose. Is swelling associated with numbness, tingling or any other symptom?
Please get a second opinion for the swelling. What are your blood sugars?
If the doctors have nothing to say about the veins,you should concentrate for time being to bring down A1c levels closer to 6.How are your other functions like liver,kidneys,thyroid etc.If overweight is a problem,you have to address that too.
Do you perform excessive physical activities?
I started doing 40 mins of brisk walking. But the swelling happens any point of time, not only when I do exercise. Many times it happened in night also when there is no activity/stress
One doctor was doubting auto immune decease. Not sure though.
Veins have valves that act as one-way flaps to prevent blood from flowing backward as it moves up the legs. Bulging of the veins results when the valves do not function properly, allowing the blood to pool and enlarge the vein. It may occur in conditions affecting the vein itself or in association with more generalized conditions, such as pregnancy and aging. Inflammation and swelling of a vein (thrombophlebitis) is a common cause of bulging veins. Other common causes include lack of movement and obesity. Obstructions to the flow of blood in the veins can also cause bulging ,so it would be better if you consult a doctor to know the exact cause.
