What Causes Protruding And Painful Veins In Legs And Hands While Breastfeeding?

Hi, I m 24 I had my second child 10 months ago and when she was around 3 months my veins started to feel like they are about to burst in both my legs and left hand. I sometimes feel dizzy and get headaches when the pain starts. I am exclusively breastfeeding on demand everyday.

HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, it may not be any vein related pain but it could be kind of muscular spasm and it can be well managed with Tab Chlorzoxazone with Diclofenac once in day, try to keep the leg in elevated position drink more water, if the pain persistence then may need investigations hope this information helps.
I find this answer helpful
