Dog Bite On The Arm, No Punctures, Broken Skin Or Blood, Only A Bulging Vein. Will It Subside?
My puppy bit me on the left arm one inch above the wrist . There are no punctures , no broken skin and no blood or anything external, however the vein is bulging just a little but slowly subsiding... will i be ok? do i need to massage that part? am i hemorrhaging inside? at the moment it seems trivial...no pain,,,, thank you

Hi,
Welcome to Healthcaremagic.
It could be a minor contusion due to the teeth.There is no need to worry.Just apply some ice over the affected part, this will suffice.
Wish you good health.
