Vein is hard after IV
I had a IV on my wrist about 2 weeks ago. The vein was paining a little and got hard near the wrist. I waited hoping it would heel. Now I feel some bumps in the vein. What type of doctor should I consult?

Consult the physician first and then you can go for physiotherapy. Ultrasonic would be effective and with that you can go for hot fermentation.
