Patient question
After an interventional procedure, the puncture site looks normal. What other changes should I watch for?

Professional answer
Follow the specific instructions given by the discharge team, and record any changes in pain, swelling, bleeding, color, or temperature, as well as reactions after activity. The precautions may differ depending on the access route and procedure, so do not rely on others' experiences. If you experience persistent bleeding, rapidly worsening swelling, obvious abnormality of the limb, or severe general discomfort, contact a medical facility urgently.
