I burst a vein in my wrist. Actually, considering I didn't do anything to it, I think it just burst on its own. A vein in my wrist burst. It was weird. I was sitting, watching television and next thing, I feel this really odd pain in my wrist...so I look at it and it's sort of swollen funny. I figured it was nothing and kept watching telly until the pain got way worse. So I looked at it in better light and realised that one of the veins was HUGE and basically encapsulated all of the surrounding veins in its hugeness. It has since oozed out all over my wrist and it's basically just a big blue blob resembling some really freaky looking bruise that sort of extends into the lower part of my palm. There's also this bright purply-red line that goes across the blue blob from one end of my wrist to the other where (I think) the blood all rose too close to the surface. Anyway, it sort of makes me look like I made a really poor attempt at cutting. Hehe.
It freaked me out really badly though. I figured, out of all the veins in your body, the ones in your wrist are the kind you should really avoid popping. They're right up there with the ones in your neck and the ones in your groin. :p
Anyway, it looks cool now that it's less terrifying. Still couldn't tell you what I did to it though. I think it's going to be a long while before my veins look normal again, as in my right wrist. :( The blue blob will be there for a while.
