What to do after WBC blood test?

If bleeding occurs after your WBC test, raise your arm and apply pressure to the spot for at least 3 minutes. It’s normal to see some bruising after a WBC blood draw. If you feel pain following the WBC test, apply ice wrapped in a towel to the area for 10 minutes. For anything more than mild discomfort, contact your doctor.
