What Causes Popping Up Of A Vein In The Finger With Burning Sensation?

Hi, I have a question. Earlier this evening, I was working in the kitchen when my finger started burning (almost like I had been stung). I scratched/rubbed it and kept going. In a minute, I looked down and it s like one of my veins was popped up and it was still a burning/itching sensation in my finger. Now, it s like I have a bruise in that area. What just happened to me??!!

Hello,

Sudden burning sensation in finger could be an insect/bug bite. Itching and scratching has probably led to popping up of the vein in your finger.

I suggest you to consult your primary healthcare provider for clinical assessment and prescription of anti-histaminic.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
