Fear of blood veins
Common Questions and Answers about Fear of blood veins
fear
I remembered that the nurse who took the blood sample actually struggled a bit at first to take the blood. This started another fear that could it be because the needle was clotted with old blood. But suddenly I remembered, that the nurse was struggling to draw blood not because it was clogged, but he could not insert the needle into my blood veins properly.
Is the weather warming up too? Your veins get way more noticeable in warm weather and if you've lost some weight with all that stress, you will notice them even more.
You could be getting some ankle/feet swelling from your varicose veins due to the warm weather.
Anxiety will take any normal physical sensation and pick away at it, until that is all you can feel. Everyone can feel their veins in hot weather if they concentrate, I reckon.
Good luck.
s I developed road maps on my legs of varicose and reticular veins. I ended up having a part of a varicose vein removed in March at least the bulging part. In my second pregnancy I developed a varicose vein on my labia which has since gone away but I am pretty sure that appears and gets worse with additional pregnancies. My biggest fear is death (pulmonary embolism) and not being here for my girls. Otherwise I am 110% ready for another baby.

Hi Beth - Welcome to our group.
It's important to know whether it's blood vessels or nerves that are showing signs of damage. If it is blood vessels then it's not MS. MS attacks nerves in the central nervous system.
As Alex said, damaged blood vessels can cause neuropathy (unexpalined nerve pain), as can things like migraine and diabetes.
The areas that are apparently red, are formed by lots of red spider veins type when you stretch out the skin. Also the veins empty of blood when pressed and refilled when remove your finger. I don't know if normal veins do that. The pain isn't in the general area, is located when I touch some veins, feeling of shaped burning.
It's been a month and since I realized that I haven't had any sexual activity or masturbation.
Hmmmmm......very familiar writing style and familiar situation.
You know it's against the rules to create a second nickname?
No. It's a normal part of pregnancy. Your blood volume increases so veins are more visable, it happens.

I did below: 1.I did HIV test in CDC,after the nurse drawing my blood from veins,there is a little hole(by the needle) left on my arm,the little hole was bleeding.2.I doubt that some positive blood(on the ground or window) contaminated my little hole(bleeding),and i don't know the blood either wet or dry.3.I put a cotton swab on my little hole to stop bleeding,I mean that perhaps I pressed the positive blood to my little bleeding hole!!!
Now my questions :
1.Am I in risk??
I was diagnosed with hypothyroid several years ago. The doctor routinely tests my blood every 6 months to make adjustments to my meds. These tests are always a trial to me because my veins are hard to locate. This time the tech used 2 different locations and blew both veins. This happens every time and I'm kind of used to it. Usually it hurts at first, then the hematoma just gradually fades away and that's that.

This pregnancy i have developed some varicose veins. I have one that is protruding on my left inner calf and is right on top of bad spider vein. It is tender to the touch and i can feel a little discomfort walking up and down stairs. Is this normal or could it actually be a blood clot? It is not warm to the touch just painful and tender.
When clots form in veins near the surface of the body, swelling and redness appear along the affected area of the vein. You may consult a doctor and get your doubts clarified. Don’t cross your legs or ankles while sitting. Avoid sitting or standing for long periods at a stretch. Sleeping on left side, wearing compression stockings may be helpful. Consult a local healthcare provider. Do write to us again with more queries.
Best luck and regards!
5 weeks ago, after a period of a bit long sessions of masturbation without lube I realized that I had a lot of new veins in the shaft of penis and that they where sensitive to the touch, like a sharp burning feeling, the glans too.
During this weeks I haven't had any sex or masturbation, but I've been very anxious with the problem and didn't have erections during the day and also a few some nights, I tought that was because I was very nervous.
This actually is relatively common and usually is caused by the torniquette that they use around your arm while taking the blood sample. They have to get them really tight so they can get your veins to pop up better. It shoudl subside pretty quickly, but if it continues, then I would suggest checking in with your doctor.
t mean a skilled phlebotomist will have any trouble tapping the vein. If a person has lots of scaring of the veins of the arms or burn wounds, the wrists and hands can be used.
If the person tapping my veins doesn't do a least 30-50 patient blood draws a day I tell them what vein in my wrist to use rather then having them dig into my arm searching for a vein. Digging it no fun. If I am at the hospital with highly experienced phlebotomists I let them use my arms.
