Hi moonbug
ouch hon, I'm not sure, but would certainly get it checked out if you worried. Better safe than sorry.
I'm really clumsy and always black n blue, my dvt was out of the blue tho, then ended up with pe. So understand your worries.
Take care gentle hugs love Sheena xxxxxx
I presume you are on anticoagulation / warfarin and should get it checked!!
You never know what bruise will be produced.

I think a swift check even if it just, on this particular occasion to put your mind at rest, is not a bad idea! Mary F
