I have had trouble with 'blood pooling in my hands' - this is even when not carrying a backpack. It is a problem with lymph drainage and the hands being an extremity, the lymph causes the hands to become puffy and become redder (extra blood). And the hand is hanging down whilst you walk. If I use poles, my hands are not hanging and the problem is much better. For some it might be how their backpack is positioned but for me, and I suspect others, it's due to this other reason.
