Hi, dear.
I have gone through your question. I can understand your concern. Hematoma pr thrombophlebitis is common at thr the donation site. But its not taking this much of time to heal
You may have some pthr soft tissue lesion at that site. Consult your doctor and take treatment accordingly. Go for blood donation. No any harm in it.
