What Causes Sudden Dizziness, Sweats And Swollen Bruises On The Arm?

I got a tattoo on holiday about 12-13 days ago. I got a blood test yesterday when I was getting checked for std's. I also received medication for chlamydia. When I left the doctors room I almost fainted, I went dizzy and very sweaty. My arm is now bruised, sore and I think swollen. Should I be concerned about this?

Hi, Welcome to Health care magic forum.
Tattoo may not be related to the present condition, if you have injection at the doctors room, it could be due to the inflammation at the site of the injection, or the allergic reaction to the drug injected.
I advise you to consult your doctor immediately, and have the treatment .
I usually prescribe to my patient with such symptoms infusion of fluids, antihistamin, steroids, and antibiotics,and diclofenac .
Wishing for a quick and complete recovery. Thank you.
