The veins are suddenly bulging on one of my feet- i noticed it 3 days ago. this foot is also more pale than the other. it feels a bit uncomfortable, but not painful and gets slightly better with elevation. no real swelling. concerned blood clot?

Your concern is real. You are seeing early signs of edema in the leg. Many causes for this. Best to see family doctor FYI. No “real” swelling is still swelling. Any swelling is still swelling.
