What Causes Blue Colored Veins In Hand?

I am 19 and recently I got in the shower and the veins in my left hand turned very blue, almost like they were swollen. Then my hand turned a blueish purple color. My finger tips were darker. I felt a sharp pain on the side of my wrist. So I started rubbing the pain and the color returned but the pain is still there. What happened and why?
