The prominence of veins in your hands and legs can often be due to several reasons like low body fat, dehydration, or happens with age-related skin changes. However, since you’re experiencing left hand and chest pain, it’s crucial to consider these symptoms more seriously because they could suggest a cardiovascular issue that needs immediate medical attention. Especially with your background of asthma and anxiety, any pain around the chest and left arm should not be taken lightly.
In Ayurveda, left side body pains may be associated with an imbalance in Vata dosha, where excess air and space can cause dryness and tension. But again, with chest and arm involvement, modern medical attention should ideally be sought first to rule out any critical conditions.
In terms of calming your symptoms at home, you can try applying warm sesame oil to your hands and legs and gently massaging in circular motion, which can help balance Vata and potentially relieve some of that discomfort. Additionally, consuming warm herbal teas like ginger and tulsi (holy basil) may help with the anxiety component. Remember though, this should not substitute timely medical evaluation.
Also practice slow deep breathing exercises to help with anxiety and improve overall lung function. But given current symptoms, ensure these practices supplement anything critical being addressed by healthcare provider. Please consider seeing a medical professional promptly to ensure your symptoms don’t point to something that needs urgent care.
