hey bro's, I was just working out and doing db curls when I noticed that I had a blue/purple bulge in the arm joint (where they tap you for blood) it then started burning and it feels like a thick hard vein! anurism? what do you guy's think it is!!! yes, I will be going to the doctor tomorrow morning but I want a couple of opinions. Thanks! ------------------ "conan, what is best in life?" IP: Logged |

No big deal... y'know, thats what a "hickey" is. Its broken blood vessels and it makes the purple under your skin, its nothing to worry about, it will heal on its own, dont even sweat it... Monster ------------------ [This message has been edited by Monster (edited June 15, 2000).] IP: Logged |

Thanks Monster, I didn't look at it that way. It just seemed so much worse then a hickey. ------------------ "conan, what is best in life?" IP: Logged |

I had that once just above the knee. I think it was a bloodvessel that had burst during heavy extensions. It was very sore for a couple of days and it turned purple after that. It got hard and took about two more weeks to go away. IP: Logged |

If you have health insurance, get it checked out, its better to ber safe than sorry. Personally, sometimes I have to stop training my bis because they literally feel like they are going to explode. I can almost feel something almost ready to go. I also get small sqiggly type bruises like ppopped capillaries in my bis. I am a Dr. but not a medical doctor so go see one of those. IP: Logged |

If you've got health ins. go check it, You'd probably rather be alive than take chances, but from personal experience, i don't think it'll be a problem, of course, i haven't seen the injury myself, so do what you think is best bro! good luck. marauder out. ------------------ IP: Logged |
