Title: Blood and Blood Vessel: Blood vessels in Hands bursting for no
Headings: 
Blood vessels in Hands bursting for no reason...why?
Content: However, in my case, my platelets were sticking together and forming small clots. You could actually feel the pea-sized bubble on top of the skin before it bursts. I was told to take a baby aspirin once a day to thin the blood. I have had recent open heart surgery for blood clots and the only reason I'm mentioning this is that since I was put on Coumadin, I have not had even one of those episodes with the blood vessels bursting. So I would advise you ask your physician to see if you're platelets are sticking together, maybe a baby aspirin daily is all you would need but let your doctor guide you accordingly. It may be nothing at all, but I know how uncomfortable it can be. Hope you get some answers and relief. 08-02-2003, 01:08 PM
