Is the IV out?: If the IV is out now, then warm moist soaks or showers and time will soften the hardened vein that were irritated with the solution and medications of the iv. If our arm veins gradually dilate with age, we can not diminish their size. I have advised patients who lift weights or run to wear those sleeves that marathoners use from a sports store or lymphedema sleeves from a specialist or dme store.
