Increased knowledge: Sometimes the best way to decrease a fear or 'queasiness' about something is to learn more about it. Veins are just part of our bodies plumbing system. They carry 'used' blood back into our bodies where it can get cleaned up. The heart pumps blood out to the body through the arteries. Arteries carry the food and oxygen that our body needs out to our body parts. Veins carry the 'trash' back.
