Hi Kezzo!
Good to see you!
Hope all is well with you and the little one?!
Sorry don't know much about the bruising, but I am glad it's making you feel a bit better.
Take care

If it's not too personal where are you injecting?0

Hi on the list of side effects with Humira it says to tell your doctor immediately if you have signs and symptoms suggestive of blood disorders such as persistent fever, BRUISING, bleeding, paleness. If you are "covered in bruises" I think I would be calling my doctor.0

I have been bruising easy on humira, even showed rheumy the bruises had not gone since last time I saw him and he injected me, 8 weeks previous he just shrugged, and said it shouldn't happen with humira???0

Hi Kezzo,
I too am covered with bruising, but I was told it's being a little bit over enthusiastic when doing the jab! Try a lighter touch next time.0
