Bruise after Blood test
I did a blood test on Saturday (5.2.22) and observed a blue bruise around the injection area on the next day morning. I feel pain in the area when I press it and the bruise is the same today as well. What should I do about it?

Two choices
1) Do nothing.
2) Apply Thrombophob ointment.
Both methods are equally effective.

Slight bruising after a needle injury is quite common (and mostly harmless & self resolving). You can apply thrombophob ointment and heat compress on the affected area for faster healing.
