Sugest A Home Remedy For Swelling Of Vein
I was walking my dog an hour ago and her leash got caught on my hand and pulled downwards. The vein puffed up and I put ice on it right away. the vein is looking better but is still wider than normal and the swelling is still there. I can move my fingers and thumb. Just wondering if I should be doing anything different than just putting ice on it.

HI
Well come to HCM
Because of the soft tissue inflammation the vein might have prominent otherwise this may not be anything wrong with the vein it self, you can keep the leg elevated for some time this would come around, if this is not then this need to be clinically examined, hope this helps.
