What Is The Silver Dollar Sized Rash Around The Injection Site?

Had my blood drawn 9 days ago and have a silver dollar sized rash around the injection site. I have had my blood drawn numerous times I get it checked for my thyroid and I used to get my levels checked bi-weekly when I was on blood thinners and I never had any reaction or rash.

Hi,
From history it seems that there might be having extra vassation of blood in surrounding tissues giving this problem.
As you are on blood thinner medicine, this is common.
Apply ice pack if require.
Ok and take care.
