I periodically get enlarged and painful veins in my feet and fingers. The veins appear swollen and there are more of them in certain places than there used to be. Also, the number of veins are not symmetrical (left side has a lot more than right side on my feet and fingers). It's almost as if new tributaries are being created. It's been suggested that I might have erythromylalgia, but my doctor isn't sure and doesn't know what to tell me. Any ideas what this might be and what can be done? Cold water helps the pain, but I'm concerned I might have something serious that isn't being treated.
