Injection site bruising - kesimpta

Hey, I did my second loading dose of kesimpta today, so far so good, the only symptom I seemed to get is a bit of a numb leg where I injected, the injection site is quite bruised, it seemed to bruise straight away, I'm just wondering if I've done anything wrong when injected? It was my first time doing it unsupervised, I'm not complaining at all because that's the only symptoms as the first loading dose made me quite ill after, I'm just wondering if this is normal? Thanks in advance

I get a bruise in the injection site too. I think its the way the injector is done and the pressure we apply when injecting.

I've been on kesimpta for a year at first i had all the bad side effects then my body got use to it and it stopped i only get a slight rash on my injection site but try holding a little bit of your skin before injecting kinda like how nurses do when they vacinate you that kinda helps me not to get bruise hope this help .
