Suggest Treatment For Bruising And Hematoma Due To Injections
I was started on lovinex have taken 9 injections so far, 2 out of my 3 first injections left major bruising and then develoed large hemotomas which are painfal to the touch. My next 6 injections left a very smal mark , no major bruising and no hemotomas. The 2 shots that left the bruising were in the stomach area above the waist, the last 6 I gave below the waist. Its been 4 or 5 days since the first ones were given and they don't seem to be getting better?

Hi,
It seems that there might be having extravasation of blood due to prick causing collection of blood under the skin.
Apply ice pack 2-3 times a day for few days.
apply thrombophob cream locally.
Gradually it will be absorbed.
Ok and take care.
