Is It Normal To Feel Burning Sensation During/after Blood Donation?
I just went to donate blood and they had a hard time finding a vein, however, when they did find one it immediately started burning really bad,. They took the needle out and now I have burning in my arm. Is that normal? This is the first time this has happened.

Hello,
Thnx to contact us. I understand your concern.
If I am your doctor I advice you that slight tingling is normal (like ant bite), but more than that is not normal. If you feel more pain and stingling sensation than you should be consulted.
I will be happy to answer more of your concerns, kindly know me,
Wish you a very good health at health care magic.
