I had blood drawn at the dr's office on Thursday.It casued bruising and burning in my arm. I could not bend my arm and now my hand is swollen.The dr. told me not to move my arm much. They put it in a sling. Now my fingers are swollen and I can't make a fist or use my fingers to write. What should I do? Why did this happen from drawing blood from my arm?
Thanks,
Dena
