A little bit ago, maybe an hour, I got a SHARP pain in my hand. I rubbed my finger over the area where the pain was, not hard, just very lightly. Now, I have a HUGE bruise on the back of my hand. Any ideas??

just a little concerning, ESPECIALLY since the doc has me on Plavix.

Sure sounds like a popped vessel to me. Try ice. I used do that quite a bit when I played basketball- maybe call your doc in the a.m.

very weird! I wasn't even doing anything but sitting on the couch. Surrounded by pillows so I didn't hit it on anything beforehand. But, yea, I'll give the doc a call in the morning.

Were you shot??  I'm teasing, sounds like a weirdo thing. Plavix works a bit differently than other blood "thinners" so hopefully you won't have any other issue. Ice is always a good idea, stops bleeding and pain. I'd like to know what you MD says.

Just spoke to the nurse, she said it sounds like I had a weakened blood vessel and by rubbing it, I popped it. Said that the plavix will, of course, make things bleed a little easier and unless bruises pop up for NO reason, then it doesn't sound like anything to worry about. Funny thing, right now, as I am typing this, I look at my hand and the bruise is about 75% gone.
