Painful vein?: Although not common veins can become thrombosed, prominent and tender after venipuncture. If you can feel some firmness along the course of the vein and/or tenderness...Especially see any redness consult your physician after placing warm washcloth over area and taking aspirin.

Phlebitis: It is not uncommon for a small superficial vein to clot off after blood draw. Sometimes the vein can get inflamed which leads to pain, pulling, discomfort, redness and it may even feel like a cord beneath the skin. Generally, warm compresses with over the counter anti-inflammatories is adequate to treat this self-limited problem. If it persists beyond two weeks, see a vascular surgeon.

VENIPUNCTURE: During the procedure, sometimes they hit the nerve or overshoot the vein causing extravasation ( discloration) of blood and swelling.

It is nothing: It is not a serious problem. Just ignore. Venipuncture does not lead to any problems after a couple of days.. It should all be fine.

Venipuncture: Most vein issues will get better on their own - give it time. If was in the normal place for vein puncture then shouldn't have hit a nerve.
