Accepted Answer

Yes: These are concerning signs and warrant urgent evaluation.

Question 3

why are my neck veins bulging lol?

Accepted Answer

Increased pressure: The act of lol results in a valsalva maneuver, where holding of the breath causes increase in the chest pressure.  This pressure acts upon the veins in the chest, and is pushed upwards to the head and neck area, resulting in bulging veins.  This is a normal situation, so keep on lol; it's good for you.

Question 4

are bulging veins on my penis normal?

Accepted Answer

Yes: Most men have these, and they are most prominent during erection.

Question 5

what can i do with bulging veins on my calves?

Accepted Answer

Maybe nothing: Often, bulging veins in your calves are completely normal, especially if you are slender and exercise frequently. On the other hand, bulging veins can be a sign that you have underlying vein trouble that you can't see, even if your veins don't hurt. An  ultrasound evaluation of your veins will tell you what is going on.  I would see a vein specialist for a check up and treatment if indicated.

Question 6

osteoarthritis painful bulging veins, what to do?

Accepted Answer

see a vein doctor: Arthritis should not cause painful or bulging veins.  If you have knee arthritis and painful bulging veins, these are two different things and one has nothing to do with the other.  Check out phlebology.Org for a vein specialist near you.

Question 7

what are ways to prevent bulging veins when lifting?

Accepted Answer

Lighten the load: Veins naturally distend when you strenuously exert yourself. If you lift lighter weights perhaps with more repetition this may be prevented.

Question 8

do you know any way i can get rid of bulging veins naturally?

Accepted Answer

None that works.: Varicose veins are due to leaking valves in the saphenous vein system.  There is a strong hereditary component.  There are many potential home remedies such as horse chestnut, witch hazel and certain kinds of berries but none of these work.  If you have varicose veins, then you should see a vein specialist for a f/u venous evaluation including a venous ultrasound.

Question 9

what is the reason for bulging veins in the booty?

Accepted Answer

Hemorrhoids?  : I wonder if you are asking about hemorrhoids which are most often caused by straining to pass stool. Avoiding constipation and over excessive straining on the toilet.

Question 10

why do some people have bulging veins in their foreheads?

Accepted Answer

Usually: Born that way. Quite frequent presentation. 
Certainly, body builders, weight lifters can develop veins on the forehead, i suppose. Maybe a trumpetist  as well...
