 ASK THE DOCTOR
Q: Is it normal after
acupuncture treatment for there to be bruises in the spots where the needle
was inserted?
A:
Yes, this is a
normal occurrence in acupuncture,
especially in sensitive areas, such
as the face, legs, and hands. This
is due to the perforation of the
tiny blood vessels by the needle.
