Maybe: I don't know how long, how bad it is, what makes it better or worse, but if it persists or spreads or gets worse, it is probably time for a face to face visit with a doctor.

A member asked:
For years I've had a large lump on my forearm vein that balloons. If I raise my arm it goes down because the blood drains from it. When my arm hangs it fills with blood and gets really big if I'm exercising. It hurts if it's hit. Is this an aneurysm?
