What Causes A Bulging Vein On The Wrist?

Good morning doctor !

I am aged 25, and working mother of 6-month old baby boy. Since last one month, I have got vein bulging on my left upper wrist. It used to pop up more, when I do work like washing clothes, washing milk bottles, etc. Since last 2 weeks, it is permanently there, with pain while lifting objects. I feel the pain even while lifting my baby.



What could be the reason for this vein bulging? I had no diabetes/ or BP complaints before or during pregnancy and afterwards. Is there any home remedy? Do advise me !

General Surgeon 's  Response
Respected madam, hi I evaluated your query thoroughly.
*You are having Ganglion of the left wrist.
*Measures at home :
- avoid excess weight lifting from that wrist.
- ice application 2-3 times a day for temporary relief with analgesic tablets
mor and eve after meals in case of more pain.
- avoid direct pressure over it.
- avoid excess texting / computer work which will exacerbate problem.
- not curable by home remedies , it gives you relief only.
* Surgery is last and only option to cure but even after surgery there are
chances of recurrence of ganglion in any best center of the world.
*So moral of the story is don`t stess out, take simple measures , if more
hurting or emberassing go for surgery with possible risk of future
recurrence at the same site.
Hope this clears your query.
