I have a vein that bulges slightly in my lower left palm; i'm getting pins and needles and that area is sore. can a vein impinge on a nerve? thanks.

Yes, but: More likely you may be seeing the beginnings of carpel tunnel. Have you had any trauma to the wrist or hand ? Any signs of infection - redness, swelling, etc?. Try an OTC wrist brace for a few days, see if it helps. If not, please see your Dr.
