2. Seek Immediate Help: If you experience severe symptoms, call 999 or go to the nearest A&E

3. Contact Kelly using the emergency contact number below - even if you are already receiving medical attention.

4. Do Not Self-Medicate: Avoid taking any medications without consulting a healthcare professional.

Severe Bruising

1. Apply Cold Compress: Use a clean cloth or ice pack wrapped in a towel to reduce swelling and discomfort. Apply for 15-20 minutes.

2. Monitor the Area: Keep an eye on the bruising. If it spreads significantly or if you experience increasing pain, contact your Kellyfor guidance.

3. Limit Movement: Avoid strenuous activities that could aggravate the bruise.

4. Document Symptoms: Take notes about changes in the area, which can help your practitioner assess the situation.

In all cases, keeping calm and seeking professional help promptly is essential for ensuring your safety and wellbeing.

It is a very rare and adverse event but it is important you know what to do if you have concerns about your body’s reaction to a treatment. Remember if something doesn’t seem to be resolving or you are concerned Kelly would rather see you in clinic than worry.
