So Im 18 years old and from 3 days time I been getting really intense pain my veins of the left wrists, nothing really stops the pain, it just appears and disappears at random times. However most of the time it's there although last night I have observed when the pain is at it's worse few red lines show up on my wrists. Any ideas what it could be, or how it can be treated?

See your doctor for an appropriate diagnosis and treatment that is right for you. Pain in the wrist may not be the veins themselves but could be stress or tension in the tendons, repetitive motion injury/strain or carpal tunnel syndrome. Bending your wrist too far backwards (hyper-extending) can also cause pain in that area. Do you play sports, video games, type or play an instrument?
Redness can indicate inflammation and swelling. You might talk to your doctor about wearing a wrist-splint/brace (they can be flexible or hard) at night or during activities to help your joint recover. Anti-inflammatory over the counter meds, and ice are also sometimes used.
Hope you feel better soon!
