Guest guest Posted August 24, 2011 Report Share Posted August 24, 2011 ..... you shouldn't have any lasting effects from this, just don't use that arm too much as you will put a strain on the vein Its going to take quite a few days if not a week to go. It can happen no matter how hard the tech tries.... -- Re: blown vein mine do that all the time just from routine blood work........it will look worse before it looks better but will cause no lasting problems........ I prefer to not blame the tech....it was my arm and my vein so must have be my problem.........BARB in Florida blown vein A little off topic, but then, not really. My OS sent me for a blood test to monitor my Vitamin D level. Well, I have a blown vein. I unwrapped it after about 2 hours because it was stinging. It is black, swollen, and still stinging. Do I need to do anything besides hate the tech? in TX Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
