Took blood test two days ago and my veins now appear green and painful why?

Bleed in tissue: It is likely that blood leaked out from your vein into the surrounding tissue. If that is all there is, it will resolve in a few weeks. If you also feel a cord like vein, that would indicate clot formation in the vein and you should contact your doctor.
