Hello
Thanks for writing to HCM
According to the reports there is localized collection of blood (hematoma)in left arm resulting from trauma.
It is clearly separated from the brachial artery.There is no vascularity within the collection.
You shouldn't worry.It will be resolved after some time if it is small in size.
Hope i have answered your query.
