Is there any Cardiac Nurses out there? i had a catheter ablasion done on friday.?

i expected the bruise i got from where the local went in but when my daughter accidently kicked below the bruise i have had two larger bruises appear and part of my leg has swollen. should i be worried?

Worry if you develop severe pain, even more swelling, and especially loss of pulses in your ankles, and tops of your feet. I f you can move your leg, foot and toes, no pain at rest, and your foot and toes are warm to the touch, your probably good to go. You're generally back to your normal status with in 24 hours.

I think you should have contacted the hospital by now, the swelling doesn't sound good.

If the bruise is bigger than the size of an egg, really painful call your doctor's office. That might be a hematoma or a big blood clot.
I assume they went through your groin , if the leg on that side of your groin is pale, pulses are weak and numb and tingling, call your doctor's office so they can decide if you need to come in.

Yes seek medical opinion

That kick, although accidental, may have been strong enough to damage a blood vessel, if any type of anticoagulent therapy was used during the insertion of your catheter, the bruising could be suggestive of of some abnormal bleeding from the trauma of the kick. Please see your physician, then you won't have to worry, that swelling is questionable, as is the appearance of those new bruises. Go Now, so that they can diagnose the problem and fix it, ok?

I would definitely get it checked out by your doctor.......
