Hi, Thanks for asking the query, The veins which you saw are normally present but become more visible when inflammed or congested nothing is abnormal or worrisome. Most of the time the infection sholud decrease symptomatically and resolve in ten days. If it persists beyond that or if there is worsening of the symptoms consult your Doctor for thorough evaluation and management. Meanwhile you can go for thrice daily warm saline gargles for faster recovery. A daily B complex multivitamin suplements would be beneficial as per Doctors precription only. Hope you find this answer as helpful. Take care!
