When to visit a doctor.
While most large veins in your hands are innocuous, if they are accompanied by additional symptoms, you should consult a doctor. These may indicate an underlying concern, such as:
Deep Vein Thrombosis (DVT) is a bl00d clot that forms in a vein and causes swelling and pain in one hand or arm, as well as visible veins. This necessitates prompt medical attention.
Superficial thrombophlebitis is an inflammation of a vein near the skin’s surface that can be caused by a blood clot, injury, or infection. The damaged vein may feel hard, sensitive, or heated.
Varicose veins: Although commonly associated with the legs, varicose veins can also appear in the hands. These are usually swollen and twisted veins that cause pain, swelling, and a heavy sensation.
Connective tissue disorders: Certain rare genetic illnesses, such as Vascular Ehlers-Danlos syndrome, can create abnormally thin skin, making veins more apparent.
