What Causes Pain During The Blood Transfusion After The Plasma Was Taken Out?

more than 6 months ago i attempted to donate plasma. when the blood was being put back, i was in such pain. the lady told me some pain may occur but after screaming in pain another woman came over and took the needle out. my vein had been ruptured and all the blood had just been distributed into my arm. the blood bank told me i would be fine and to not lift anything heavy. for months my arm was every shade possible. they kept on saying it was typical and that i was fine but now im having difficulty moving my arm after a long day of movement. i dont know what to do

Such incidents never happens in blood or plasma transfusion.

It is unusual incident that has happened with you.

There is no treatment available for the blood being on the hand.

It will be drained by its own without doing anything else. But please do not stressed the hand by weight lifting and other such condition.

Please maintain good hygiene as it can prevent the infection.

I will be happy to answer your further concern on bit.ly/DrArun.
