Big Bruise

My husband gives blood every time he is able to.  He has been doing this forever, and has never had anything like this happen to him.  This is what his arm looks like 2 days after giving blood.  He said when he was giving blood, it hurt a little, but nothing serious, and he thought afterwards maybe the bandage was just too tight.  The next day, I saw his arm.  He hadn't even realized what had happened.  He says it doesn't hurt, is just a little bit sore now, and neither of us can figure out what in the world happened.  The bruise is pretty much the length of his arm.  Gross, huh?
