A member asked:
I think i might have a vessel burst on my foot (could be vein?)... is it harmless?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Probably: If you have severe pain, swelling, or deformity of your foot you should be seen. But if you have a simple discoloration that looks like perhaps a vein has broken , it is probably fine and should resolve quickly without problems.
