Question 3

doctor trying to give a drip,vein too small now i'm swellen, is it a problem?

It will go down.: You should not worry the swelling should go down in time. In a day or two the body would absorb whatever got out to cause the swelling.

Question 4

shall i see my doctor about a bruised vein?

Accepted Answer

Several Things.: The most common cause of veins bursting and bleeding  would be trauma.  Other causes could be the taking of blood thinners such as Coumadin (warfarin) but also nsaids, aspirin, fish oil, flaxseed oil, plavix, etc.Another cause could be blood problem resulting in an inability to clot.  Obviously, it is impossible to make a diagnosis based on only a few facts.  You should see a hematologist if bruising recurs.
