Remove Veins in Forearm/Hand? (Photo)

March 27, 2016
Asked By:Annabeebelle in New York, NY

I have bulging veins in my forearms and hands. It's not from working out or doing any activity. Even as I'm sitting, they popout. When I raise my arms up, they shrink. My cardiologist says it's the beginnings of chronic venous insufficiency. Several places have agreed to treat the veins in my legs, but what about my forearms/hands? Can sclerotherapy be used? Laser? Any other options for an otherwise healthy 27yr old?
