Are 2 Large Hematoma Around The Wrist Serious Causes For Concern?

I have 2 large hematoma around my wrist after a machine took my blood pressure at the Dr s office? Should I be concerned? I went back to the Dr less than 24 hours after it happened and they have no idea what s wrong with me. No one i know in Healthcare can explain

General Surgeon 's  Response
Hello,

* As per my clinical experience, the hematoma around the wrist is not associated with the procedure of BP measurement unless there is any specific compression or release technique used which is not relevant to international standards.

* However, if you provide a photo picture of the hematoma with complete past history of the medical concern, I can still focus further.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
Dr Bhagyesh V. Patel, General Surgeon
