Vein irritation: The vein may be irritated/inflamed from the iv needle or the infusions. If there is surrounding redness,tenderness or hardness of the vein,or arm or hand swelling, have your physician evaluate you for diagnosis and treatment. In the meantime,apply warm packs to help the inflammation subside.
