What do you do when you hit a vein while giving yourself a shot?

I started using the Humira Pen. What happens when you hit a vein? Do you take out the pen and then retry, or does that not work?

heya.. its only subcut so its only going into the top layer of the skin. if you hit anything it will just bleed abit and bruise maybe. with the pen once you hit the inject thats the end of it and it cant be used again.
