What Does A Painful Bulging Vein On Wrist Indicate?

Yesterday I was just vacuuming when my left wrist started hurting. I noticed a large vein bulging. It continued to hurt (dull pain) for some time. Later it became black and blue...I did not cause any injury to the wrist. Today the bruising seems to be getting worse. Not much pain....just discomfort dull pain. Should I be worried?
