Hello and hope you are doing well.
The ‘blue’ fingers could be due to an allergen. It could also be due to circulatory problems, temperature problems or a rash. You will need to see if any other allergens are triggering this reaction. You may also need to notice if ‘cold’ is precipitating your symptoms. So, go ahead and have the tests done and discuss these options with your doctor when you happen to meet him next time.
Hope this helped and do keep us posted.
Thanks for your input. I have not changed my diet and have not eaten a lot of salt. The swellings are more like flesh colored blisters on both hands. Although I have not experienced any other known symptoms of allergic reactions to penicillin vk, I know I have not experienced my veins bulging before taking it. I will be having a venous duplex and cbc test soon, to see what's going on.
Throughout your life your veins will do this...this is normal.
The swelling and bumps are not as normal.
Normally, in cases where allergies are present, you will experience: hives ( raised red blotches, itchy or painful ) swelling of the tongue/ lips/ throat, dizziness, and many other symptoms.
Your hands could have become swollen from salt, over-usage, arthritis, etc.
Hope this helps.
