What Causes Swelling In Vein Prominent From Wrist To Inner Elbow?

My daughter fell on the ice yesterday and has a lump on her mid arm, closer to her wrist. It s some sore but it doesn t seem to be broken. Just now we noticed that the vein is swollen and bright all the way up to her inner elbow. It is kind of reddish-blue. What is going on here?
