Blue Splotches And Hard Veins... Posted: 07-09-07 17:26pm
Occasionally since I was in my late teens
(around 5 years ago) and again a few days
ago I would develop sudden areas of my
skin that would turn a light blue-green in
varying sizes. I can recall these mostly
happening on my arms, around my hands and
up my forearms as well my shoulder area
and chest. Just today it appeared again on
my right bicep, very close to the elbow
joint and was approximately the size of a
silver dollar. In this case I also noticed
that the vein under that area, which is
not normally visible, was raised, very
hard to the touch, and slightly painful if
pressure was applied. Does anyone know if
this is a fairly usual event or if I
should be running to a doctor Smile. (just
a fyi I was in great shape during my late
teens, I have since put on about 25
pounds, and the situation has been
happening during both periods.) thanks for
the read any info would be very
appreciated!

Hi Dan
I'm sorry it's taken a while for me to
respond, it's difficult to tell what the
problem is, have you seen a doctor, it
could be something very simple, that
they'd be able to diagnose and treat.
Your description is vauge, and I wouldn't
like to assume any advise other than for
you to see your doctor.
