Hi Jrosiebd,
I'm sorry you have thses problems. I don't have the symptoms you have with the blood vessels poppng up in your fingers, but I do have blood vessels that pop up on my stomach where I had my hysterectomy. My blood vessels pop up when I put a heating pad on my stomach when it's hurting more than usual. They go back down usually the next day though. Hope you feel better. Take Care. Renee. |

Have you tried an epsom salt soak? I have started getting very painful varicose veins all through my rsd leg. Yes my reg veins stick up a lot when I hurt but these little boogers hurt.

I get bad pain in my fingers/hands...they tend to claw up in a really bad flare which is sometimes accompanied by terrible swelling and sometimes not. I find that when it's bad...heat is definitely my friend. A nice soak in a warm Epsom salt bath is usually the only thing that helps me get my hands unstuck.

Hi JRosie. I'm not quite sure if this is what you mean but I have noticed that when my hand swells up a wee bit more than normal, my veins become more prominent and are sort raised up. I also have extra pain at these times. I haven't actually asked my doctor about it.

I think I know what you are talkng abt. I have recently been diagnosed with CRPS in my left hand. thumb and second finger mostly. I have noticed at times (especially when the pain is bad or increasing) that there seem to be 2 blood vessels in the thumb area - the worst affected area - that sort of stand out more than they do when I am having a mild pain day. I have to admit it is something that I keep forgetting to mention to the dr. I find that if I do it at the right time and in the correct area if I apply just the tiniest bit of warm pressure it sometimes eases just a little, but then if I get the timing or position wrong it sends me into agony. |

Odd question just occurred to me, I got fibromyalgia, a little over two years into the RSD. fibromyalgia is the inflammation of the thin membrane that covers each muscle and forms tendons, attaching muscle to bone/joints. That's two inflammatory sites that involve tissue/membrane that houses soft tissue. Things that make you go hhhhmmmmm? |
