It’s not age, because i’m 15. It’s not that i’m too thin, i’m 108 and 5’5.
My breasts, thighs, lower legs, and even around my hip bones. They’re not little spider veins. they’re big blue veins that around my hips you can see curving around and its really strange. i can see the veins in my wrists go from half way in my palm all the way to a my GIANT elbow vein. all the way up my lower arm. that’s so nasty.
but why all of a sudden? should i be worried?

also, on the back of my hand, the veins are so visible that if i press down on it, pull towards the knuckle, then release the pressure, you can SEE (actually see) the blood rush back through the vein.
and i’ve worked up a little tan from tennis. i’m not super super pale.

Between my wrist and my elbow, my arm will sometimes be very sensitive. It’s not red, there’s no rash, but it’s really bothersome to wear clothing or have anything touching my arm, it’s so sensitive and sore in that one area. It goes away after a day or two, but what is this?

okay, so i actually got injured (my foot) and had surgery to repair it. That was almost a year ago. Previously I was very active (I ran, worked out, ect)

I wanted to start doing things again because I had gained a bit of weight from being in a wheel chair. Sooo, I went to ultimate upper(group fitness class/upper body weight training) and it was a WHOLE lot harder than i remembered (x,x) I did use really light weights ~ 3lb and 5lb~ but this morning I woke up and I couldnt move my arms. My whole upper body seems frozen in place and it is painful to move(reach for something, pick up somthing) ect. Almost like a whole upper body cramp, i cant rotate my shoulders and bending at my elbow also is quite painful.

I’ve never had any problems doing this class previously and i could do ~5lbs 10lbs~ quiet easily. I’m not very familiar with injury or soreness in my upperbody so I am not sure what I should do and if I am actually hurt or just sore. Streching the muscles and poping the joints havent helped but created a burining sensation(which makes me think its an injury instead of soreness) the only type of muscle realted injury i am familiar with is in my legs and feet (quite prone to those) so i really am in the dark here about the problem.

Areas in pain:
Lower arm muscles
upper arm muscles
chest muscles
shoulder muscles
back muscles

now i know they cant all be injured but I do know that my shoulder area is where allmost all the pain is, (as in if i try to rotate the joint its horribly painful) my arms feel like they are just sore except that my right elbow feels like I may have pulled something… similar to throwing a softball wrong and hurting the elbow and shoulder area it seems.

What should I do, am i hurt in the joints or no?

There’s no swelling, isn’t sore at all when touched or prodded, and there’s no pain in my upper or lower arm.
It’s a sharp pain that feels like it’s somewhere inbetween all off the bony spots at the end of your elbow,
It is only in my left elbow (and I’m right handed).
It only happens when it’s almost completely bent. I’ve tried the tests for Tennis elbow that I found online, and get no pain from that. Don’t get any pain from any other movement except for bending my elbow (such as putting my purse over my shoulder, or putting a jacket on, etc)
I’ve had it on and off for about a week, and it only got worse yesterday, and it’s starting to become a dull constant pain as of today.

I would GREATLY appreciate any help/suggestions/diagnoses/advice!!
Since my joint/pain doctor didn’t have any openings until OCTOBER.

about three weeks ago my elbow was swollen with a large area of fluid.:I didn’t go the the Dr.at that time..due to the fact that i see him every month….Well, i went for my regular appointment and forgot about my elbow.
now there is a new development with my elbow.the fluid has gone away and now a cyst has developed berween the two bones that join in your elbow..(upper and lower arm bone) this was small at first.I noticed it about 10 days ago..now it has tripled in size ( perhaps the size of a small walnut) My question is
what causes this?? will i need surgery……??? if so what are the repercusions?? I make crystal jewelry to pay for my parkinsens medicine. If surgery is done,will i be able to contiue immediately with my jewelry? thank you so much.
