When I went to do labs I had the wrapping on for 25 minutes and when I took it off blood started leaking down my arm.

I don’t know what blood tests were done, but concerned about prolonged bleeding. A complete blood count would show anemia and low platelet count. Are you taking aspirin? Could be a vitamin deficiency, like Vitamin K. Check with Dr. for results on that.

@astaingegerdm they did but nothing of concern. I never take aspirin so it's just a bit odd.
