This was a first!! My sensor failed last night and told me to replace it (again)
I was surprised to find this along with a large uncomfortable lump under the tapes.
I had had some weird wobbles in spite of looping . Now I know why.
I shall be using the other arm for a while!!!!
 
Nasty! I had similar from one of my pump cannulas once (on my stomach). It took a while to go completely. The bruise stayed for ages and the lump gradually reduced over a week or two. I totally avoided the area and was careful not to rub, squash or provoke it in any way. I hope yours gets better smoothly.
 
Thanks @Inka
I shall be keeping well clear of that area for a good while.
 
This was my bruise from the cannula when i was in hospital x
