What Is The Cure For Sore Wrist After Drawing Blood?

Hi
I had to have some blood taken yesterday and since I have shallow veins the nurse took it from the back of my left hand. This morning I woke up with a very sore wrist. It hurts to put any pressure on it. Can you suggest something to heal the damage.
