Dark bruises after sclerotherapy? (Photos)

Yanna123
I have done a first sclerotherapy treatment 2 days ago and have bruises in the injected area, also I had bleeding right after the injection which took some time for the bleeding to stop so I had to wait at the doctor office until it stopped. The doctor put some arnica gel before I put the compression stockings and ordered to have them for the next 48 hours. My concern that it is permanent and I will have some pigment. Please advise what to do and should I be worry.
