Because of what can be seen veins on the mammary gland?
First of all, it must be said that there can be many reasons. Depending on the origin, conditionally we divide them into 2 groups: physiological (not associated with the disease) and pathological (associated with the disease).
So, to physiological it is possible to carry:
- period of pregnancy and lactation;
- hormonal, cyclic changes;
- an unstable level of testosterone in the adolescent period;
- menopause;
- decreased body weight;
- active physical activity.
So, many girls note that they have before the menstrual period or with their veins on their chest. This is due to a change in the hormonal background, an increase in progesterone in the blood, which provides an increase, engorgement of the mammary glands.
What violations can indicate the veins that appear on the breast?
Each girl should carry out a self-evaluation of the mammary glands on an ongoing basis: palpation, evaluation of the form, color. If suddenly veins appear on the chest, then this may indicate a number of violations. Among them are:
- disturbance of the functioning of the circulatory system: thrombolabitis, varicosity;
- the appearance of neoplasms in the chest: cyst, lipoma, adenoma;
- inflammatory processes in the body: mastitis, mastitis of various etiologies;
- consequences of abortion as a result of an unbalanced hormonal background;
- the result of infection of the body - inflammation and edema of regional lymph nodes (axillary) and, as a consequence, an increase in the proximity of the veins.
So, if suddenly a swollen vein swelled on her breast, or she acted under the gland, then most likely a woman deals with a thrombosis. With such a violation, small blood clots of the veins occlude, as a result of which the trophism of nearby tissues is disrupted. In such situations, after a short time, the woman observes external changes in the area of the lesion:
- cyanosis of the skin;
- a feeling of tightness in the chest;
- swelling;
- enlargement of the gland in size.
What to do?
The algorithm of actions is as follows:
- examine the chest, palpate for seals;
- appreciate the color;
- if there is swelling, - use compression linen;
- do not take any medicine yourself, contact a doctor.
Thus, as can be seen from the article, the situation when the veins appeared on the chest can have both a harmless character and indicate a disease. Therefore, do not delay the visit to the doctor, and strictly follow the medical instructions, appointments.
