Dont be a p u ss and go to the docs
About a week I figured I would be a good guy and decided I would drop by a blood donation clinic. They had trouble finding the vein, and did a lot of poking around. So now, a week later my arm looks like this... and the area gets larger everyday. Just wondered if any doctors (or nurses) thinks this is a problem. Clearly some internal bleeding going on I figured.

Kick his ass folks. :crossx: Isn't there cheap medical in Canaduh?? :rollside:
What you got there is a common hematoma.
Blood is leaking from the blood vessel into the tissue around the arm. Basically a bruise.
It usually doesn't pose any major problem, unless it starts to swell and/or look like a big blood blister.
If it get's too much worse or painful, I'd see a doctor.
But from the looks of it, a little ice compress will do.
This is a new one. Medical advice from the likes of Hot Boaters. What's the matter? The local bar closed today? :crossx:

Wife says BC is right, take his advice and if it hurts and you can't hold a beer then get it checked.
