How To Treat Painful Left Wrist Bruising With A Big Knot?

A week ago, I woke to what appeared was a bruised left wrist.
however I don't remember doing anything to bruise it.
At first is was blue, and there was a big knot on one of the veins.
Then turned black/red now yellowish but there is still a knot.
It was very painful at first, now less pain, but pain when I touch the knot that is still on my wrist vein.
should I be concerned.
I do have a big problem with bulging veins; varicose veins...
please help!

Hi,
From history it seems that you might be having thrombophlebitis giving this problem.
Go for one antibiotic medicine course.
Apply thrombophob cream on the part.
Ok and take care.
