    Hi 🙂

    I had my ba on 7th September and a few days after I still had bruising from the where the cannula was but I also noticed a small painful ‘lump’ that led up to where the needle went in. I didn’t think much of it and thought it would dissappear but It’s still there now. it’s moved up my arm and is the same size and still painful to touch. Is this normal? x

    I know I was the same!!! I’ve just googled it and apparently it’s normal and can last for weeks. Apparently it’s just from the trauma to the vein. Mines moved lower in my hand from where the canular was. Eeewww x
