What are some sythoms of a avm without the a?

You are asking about Venous Malformations... (I presume)

Well...symptoms are in brief.....
"The bluish appearance is typical. VMs also tend to be painful, particularly in the morning upon arising, or if they are struck. VMs often swell if the affected region is made dependent (lowered below the level of the heart). VMs in the head/neck region enlarge when the patient tries to force air from the lungs with the vocal cords held closed (Valsalva maneuver)."

You may want to look at the following websites for a bit more information....

Hope this helps...

All the best!
