Guest guest Posted January 10, 2012 Report Share Posted January 10, 2012 The formation of ecchymosis or a local hematoma is a result of the perforation of cutaneous blood vessels. These complications are encountered more commonly in areas of high vascularity, including the mucous membranes, head, and genitalia. Ecchymosis and hematoma are even more pronounced when the patient has a bleeding diathesis or when the patient has been taking aspirin or other anticoagulants. If ecchymosis occurs, the patient should simply be reassured. If hematoma formation occurs, the patient should be evaluated. The hematoma may require drainage with an 18-gauge needle, followed by the application of a pressure dressing.
