I Have A Nasty Impact To The Vein. I Am Experiencing Dull Ache, Swelling
During a game of softball last night i received a nasty impact to the vein in the underside of my wrist, it came from a ball which was pitched at a speed of 80km. Since the impact the vein became extremely enlarged. It was strapped to prevent further swelling ice pack was also applied. Today i am experiencing dull ache, swelling, is there a need to be concerned or will the symptoms abate?

Thanks for the query
It looks like u have developed a hematoma. It's hard for me to tell if it is enough to manage medically or it requires surgical drainage. It is best u meet a surgeon for it. Take diclofenac with serratiopeptidasr to reduce te swelling ( serratiopeptidasr is banned in some countries)
