Bulging Veins In Hands
Posted: 03-10-04 02:11am

I'm 34.

Over the last few months, i've noticed that the veins in my hands seem *much* more prominent when my hands are lowered (and of course, they disappear when my hands are raised). I literally looked in the mirror one day and said, "my god, I have old-man hands!"

i never really noticed this before, so I can't say they weren't like this previously.

I know this is nothing to worry about, but i'm wondering if it really did just start to develop or I just didn't notice. However, is there anything that would cause the veins to "suddenly" start bulging out more?

I've also had issues with my hands feeling a bit more sore occasionally. Could this be related?

Sorry if the category is inapproriate, but I couldn't find a better one.

Wow, that's a flash from the past...but figured I'd follow up.

I'm normal. What I was experiencing is completely normal. I was just going through a period where I was extremely paranoid about everything going on with me due to some palpatations I was experiencing (palpatations will make you VERY aware of your body Smile )
