A member asked:
Why does your veins roll whenever someone is trying to take your blood?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Roller: This is often a problem with technique - not fixing or stretching the vessel, bevel oriented incorrectly, too large a needle or even too slow or fast an approach. All of this can cause a vessel to "roll".
