Here are some guidelines for eating during chemotherapy. 1  Eat frequent, small snacks so you consume enough calories and nutrients. 2  Incorporate high-calorie and high-protein foods, such as cheese and crackers, muffins, pudding, shakes, yogurt, ice cream, and chocolate. 3  Take vitamin and mineral supplements.
Telangiectasias /tÉlËÃ¦n.dÊiË.ÉkËteÉª.zi.É/, also known as spider veins or angioectasias, are small dilated blood vessels near the surface of the skin or mucous membranes, measuring between 0.5 and 1 millimeter in diameter. These dilated blood vessels can develop anywhere on the body but are commonly seen on the face around the nose, cheeks, and chin. Dilated blood vessels can also develop on the legs, although when they occur on the legs, they often have underlying venous reflux or hidden varicose veins (see Venous reflux below).
Sun damage can wear down the skin, making veins more noticeable. If possible, wear a hat and protective eyewear for further coverage. Individuals with fair skin are particularly prone to developing spider veins on the nose (and face) from sun exposure. After exposure to the sun, wash off sunscreen gently.
