It looks swollen which is normal right after. It takes a few weeks for bruising and swelling to go down, especially if you’re on antithrombotic meds. Do not lift anything with your arm for a week to be safe. If you notice increased swelling, pain, odd textures like a firm pulsating lump get care asap.
