My mom poped her veins on her wrist. she has a little pain on her hand and she also has bruising on the side of the veins!should she go to the doctor?

Usually benign: superficial veins will leave bruising when hit or traumatized. Nothing dangerous unless red, hot or swollen. Use Advil (ibuprofen) as needed for pain and local ice.
