Needle injury: Sounds like you had bleeding and that caused a hematoma. If it gets red or hot please see your doctor as these could be signs of infection.

A week ago I had blood drawn. As the nurse inserted the needle my arm went numb. My wrist is *very* sore, I think she hit a nerve. Will this go away?

I got a blood test a couple of days ago and now my arm has turned red from the elbow to the wrist. The spot where the needle was inserted is very touchy.
