Hard Veins On The Hand With A Bruise After A Bang, No Pain, Prominent Bulge, Chest Pain With Numbness. What Can Be Done?

I bumped my left hip on something recently, and had an ugly bruise . Bruise went away, but just noticed that part of one of my veins is really hard now. There is no pain, but the bulge of it is very prominent. I ve had a few chest pains (or twinges, what-have-you) in my left-side chest area, and some numbness somewhat as well. I don t have the $ to go to the Dr, for it to turn out to be nothing. I m only 30 years old for goodness sakes! Any suggestions?

Hi

the prominent veins may simply be a thrombophlebitis from the injury. if they are not painful they do not require any treatment.

it's unlikely that the twinges in your chest and numbness are related. if short lived pains without any additional symptoms it's unlikely that they are serious. if they persist I would see your dr.

best wishes
