Do you bruise after your fill?

I've never read about this so I thought I'd check. I had my first fill on Monday and I'm REALLY bruised at the port site. It's about a 3" bruise all the way around and it looks like someone punched me there. I know she poked me more than once and moved the needle around a bit.

Anyone else bruise? I just want to make sure that something didn't go wrong. The site is tender now, but otherwise everything else seems fine. (Although, I SWEAR I'm hungrier now than before the fill!)

    Yes, I bruise all the time, I have a blue/black bruise on me still from last week on Thursday... I really don't like these fills.
