Hi jojo . That does not look right. Im no expert and not post tx , but if you had knocked your wrist at any point then maybe that's why . I would get professional opinion. It may be due to the asprin thinning your blood 🤔x

I had and still get regular bruising in all sorts of places without knowing how. When I've queried it i just get told its the Aspirin!! I did once get a black eye quite soon after my operation for no apparent reason that was fun trying to explain how that happened, people tend not believe when you just say 'i woke up with it' lol. I hope it is nothing serious and the Dr puts your mind st rest. Good luck and keep smiling 😁😁

I used to be on prednisone and had bruises from time to time. I think it is a recognised side effect. Check the leaflet you got with the med.
