General Surgeon 's  Response
Hi. The pain you describe is unlikely to be due to vein swellings. Protruding veins dont cause pain or tingling numbness. It is usually caused by nerve problems or Rheumatological diseases. You should consult a Physician or a Rheumatologist for your problem. He would run some tests to know why these problems are happening. Take care.
