Hey

I just shut my finger in the bathroom stall door.

I can bend it fine, but immediarely after doing it the vein in the finger got swollen and blueish. I iced it immediately and it seemed to calm some of the swelling.

I guess I'm just nervous about blood clots. My veins have looked so odd lately, just wondering if this could be anything I should worry about.

Sounds like a busted blood vessel to me. I have done this many times you are doing the right thing to ice it.
Take care,
mimi

OK, thanks [Smile]

Everything has turned me into such a major paranoid nut when it comes to anything medical.
