A Dark Bleeding Bruise In The Breast, Is It Normal?

I had a biopsy for breast cancer and it resulted in the breast having one dark bruise covering the under part and the top part consisted of flakey (sp?) skin that bled a rather allot and needed much dressing. This lasted for about four weeks. How normal is this?
