You have problem of bruishing after blood drawing that may be because of blood accumlation surronding area.
Injury to othrt part or blood vessels may cause bruishing. Low platelets cout cause bruishing more.... Internal bleeding may cause this type of bruishing.
Consent a physician for further diagnosis. I hope my guidance is helpful to you. Take care. Thanks.
