A bruise on the back of the hand after stenting may be caused by subcutaneous ecchymosis, abnormal coagulation function and so on.
1. Subcutaneous ecchymosis: If the puncture site is bruised, it may be due to localized blood seepage from the puncture site during implantation of the stent, resulting in subcutaneous ecchymosis, which may cause bruising on the back of the hand. Patients can apply local hot compresses to promote the absorption of bruises.
2. Abnormal coagulation function: After stent implantation surgery, in order to prevent thrombosis, patients should generally follow the doctor’s instructions to take heparin and other anticoagulant drugs, but at the same time may also cause the body’s coagulation function is abnormal, which may cause the back of the hand localized blue. Patients should consult a doctor in time for blood routine, coagulation function and other tests, and adjust the dosage of anticoagulant drugs as prescribed by the doctor.
Patients with symptoms such as localized blueing on the back of the hand after stent implantation surgery should contact the doctor in time and under the doctor’s guidance for further treatment, so as to avoid delays in the condition, resulting in adverse consequences.
