A member asked:

I had blood drawn,1hr later i lifted weights and i noticed a small bump fill with blood where i got poked at,is this normal ? hel asap docs

Hematoma: Often they warn you not to lift weights after you get a venipuncture. Put a pressure dressing on it if you can -- a wad of cotton under an ace bandage may be enough. Work legs and abs for the next few days; skip the arms. The blood may leave a small scar.
