What Caused A Vein To Protrude From My Wrist For 15 Minutes?
Hello, two days ago, I was driving and out of nowhere a very large vein protruded out of my wrist for about 15 minutes. It was very painful and my ring and pinky finger went numb. After the protruding subsided, the harsh pain went away but it was sore. Now I have a very large and deep bruise where the vein was bulging. I m working in GA and my insurance is in CA so of course I m skeptical about going to a doctor here because I m not covered...
