Hi..
Thanks for the query..

As per your complain there is pricking of a blood vessel with the injection needle leading to spilling of the blood in the soft tissues leading to formation of a HEMATOMA and bruising along with it leading to the purple and red blue appearance..
You need not to worry as it is a self resolving condition but can take a longer times like a few month to resolve completely..
You should do alternate warm and cold compresses over the region for faster resolution and apply Thrombophob Gel over it [but only after patch test]..

Hope this helps..

Thanks and regards..
