A member asked:
The veins on the top of one of my feet are suddenly bulging and slightly uncomfortable (24 hours ago). no swelling or significant pain. is thrombophlebitis a concern?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
It is almost never or very rare to have thrombophlebitis bilaterally at the same time. Your foot problem could be due to your new footwear or an unusual body position on the day before. You can apply ice pad locally and raise your feet up when sitting or lying down as much as possible in the next 1-2 days. See your doctor if symptom persists or get worse by Monday. Good luck.
