I Started Seeing A Large Vein In Upper Right Arm,there Is No Pain Or Discomfort

I just recently started seeing a large blue vein in my right upper arm, there is no pain or discomfort, although my right hand will get cold and tingly sometimes. Also I have a burning sensation in my right shoulder at times. I have been under a tremendous amount of stress, could this all be related to stress or could being on the computer an excessive amount of time cause this?

Hi,

Welcome to Healthcaremagic Forum,
The engorgement of veins is a natural phenomenon in muscular and skinny people because of loss of fat. No need to worry, if it is really causing you some discomfort then you need to consult your vascular surgeon.
Good Luck

Regards
Dr. Naveen Kumar
