08/12/2023 Although it’s rare, bulging veins on your arms and hands may signal a serious underlying condition, such as a blood clot. Usually, this is the case when you notice sudden bulging veins in your hands or arms. More commonly, bulging veins happen over time and are due to a variety of normal circumstances like aging or genetics. Both serious and cosmetic bulging hand veins can leave you with pain and discomfort, as well as embarrassment. To relieve the pressure and give your arms and hands a smoother, younger appearance, rely on a vascular specialist at the Astra Vein Treatment Center in Brooklyn, NY and Bronx, NY. Call for an appointment.
DO I HAVE BULGING VEINS IN MY HANDS OR ARMS?If you have veiny hands or veins popping out on your arms, you may be unhappy with the way they look. They may also cause you considerable discomfort. While veins popping out is more often than not a cosmetic concern, it may be a sign of serious vein conditions that, left untreated, could lead to more complications.
Bulging veins aren’t always unhealthy veins, but it’s a good idea to have them examined, just to be sure. At the Astra Vein Treatment Center in Brooklyn, NY and Bronx, NY, founder Dr. George Bolotin evaluates swollen veins to determine the underlying cause of their appearance. Once he’s identified the cause, he presents you with effective options for treatment.
WHAT SYMPTOMS ACCOMPANY BULGING VEINS IN YOUR ARMS?When veins in your arm appear to protrude, they may be varicose veins, which are veins that appear to be twisted and bulging right under the surface. While varicose veins are more common in legs, they sometimes occur in arms. In addition to visually protruding veins, symptoms of other vascular conditions that may cause swollen arm veins to include:

• Red, inflamed skin around the vein
• Arm pain or tenderness
• Arm swelling, which may happen suddenly

These symptoms may indicate a blood clot in a vein. If the blood clot is right under the skin, it’s called superficial thrombophlebitis. A clot in deep veins, far below the surface of the skin, is called deep vein thrombosis (DVT). This type of clot can be very dangerous because it can travel to your lungs and block one of the pulmonary arteries there, a condition known as a pulmonary embolism. This is a life-threatening condition and requires immediate emergency treatment.
