Should i be worried/??

[bhumik]

yesterday i was giving blood for some blood tests, and right after the lab tech took out the needle, the site of puncture swole up into small bubble like thing.

Now that happens sometimes when i give blood so i wasnt worried too much. but this time the bubble was a bit bigger. now about 36 hours later there is a small nasty small bruise and i have a pain right near where the bicep tendon attaches the bone.
is it possible that the phelbotomist injured my tendon while taking blood//?? i mean its not an unbearable pain but it feels wierd flexing my biceps.. and i dont want ne more injuries. AM i just being paranoid..

Sounds like a small haematoma (sp). Happens after the needle is pulled out and there is a slight bleed under the skin. Nothing to worry about. Unless it keeps getting bigger, then go and see the quack!
