Anyone have a hard time getting blood drawn? Well today girl went to take some and it was coming out…

Yeah you shouldn't get a blood clot from that, but she blew your vein. It's just internal bleeding, which is what bruises are anyway. It's nothing serious, but did she tell you why she was having trouble? Usually it's because when you're dehydrated, your veins constrict. She could also be inexperienced.

I bruise really badly when I get blood taken, and the last time I did the lady couldn't find a vein so mine kinda looked like that. Just ice it you should be fine ☺️

I was told my veins roll and they are really small. Been having problems for years. They always have trouble. I drink tons of water. She just said it was coming out very slow and she kept jamming the needle around in my vein and it really hurt. But I went to lab the guy had no problem. Well first try he got nothing and moved to different spot and he got it

My first few blood draws were completely unnoticeable then I had one like this and it hurt like crazy. At my next blood draw I asked if it's normal for that to happen and the lady said it happens when they don't apply enough pressure. She also said it's nothing to worry about

They always have trouble finding my veins, I always let them know that they have to go through my hands so they dont waste time amd pokes on my arms.

Apply ice

Yeah I was told to ice it. I went to a walk in place. Just to be safer then sorry.

I have the hardest time getting blood drawn!! Earlier in my pregnancy I was having complications and I had to get my blood drawn every day for 3 days!! :/ I had one nurse completely give up after he took the needle out (b/c he wasn't getting enough blood flow) and have blood squirt out everywhere! It's always a mess when I have blood work. My arms are usually bruised up and down after 1 session of trying to get blood !!!

Yeah the lady the does mine misses an moves the needle around in my arm to. It turned. Green blue color with minutes after getting it done.. I'm afraid to say anything cause I'll probably be stuck with her an she may make it even harder for me on the future I'm only 7 weeks so I have a few more times to get blood work done an definitely don't want to make her mad lol

I'm a certified phlebotomist and its fine. Just a bruise nothing to worry about. Next time you get your blood drawn asked for a coban wrap (that stretching bandage that comes in cool colors). And leave it on a couple hours.

Most the time when they draw my blood they poke me 3 or 4 times because they think they can find the vein but they can't even after I told him where it is because my veins are horrible I completely understand what you mean but you're not going to get a blood clot you should be fine.

That's what it looks like for me every time I get blood drawn because they always pop one of my veins when trying to get a good flow. Nothing to worry about the bruising will go away within a week or so if not sooner

Fishing for a vein is painful!

I have very tiny veins. Nurse have to use smaller needles on me n my veins r really hard to find so I now get my blood drawn from the back of my hand.

I am so not looking forward to getting more blood drawn. But now I know to go to the lab instead of getting it done in doctors office. Never again.
