Ventral palm/Dorsal hand
Forearm
Choose a fleshy area of the forearm or upper arm away from bone, visible
veins and thick hairs of the arm. Sometimes there is less blood flow to these
areas than to the fingertip. To help you get enough drops of blood, you may
gently massage or apply a heating pad to the site to increase blood flow.
Choose a fleshy area on the palm,
below your thumb or pinky finger.
Select a spot without any visible
veins and away from any deep lines,
which may cause your blood sample
to smear.
