Can Eye Mascara Causes Blood Blister Near Eyes?
First of all, I take Effient 10mg/day. Had a heart attack 1 yr. ago. I was applying waterproof eye mascara and often times smear it during application, so I thought that's what it was. I kept dabbing at it then tried rubbing it off with a tissue and realized it was a bruise in the making. It then has turned into a small soft, what appears to be a blood blister and the bruise has moved to about the size of a dime. Anything to be concerned with or most likely from the Effient?

Hi, thanks for using healthcare magic
The effient would aggravate or worsen any bruising or bleeding but it was not the initial cause.
The rubbing would have caused the bruise but the medication would have caused it to be more extensive than it may have been if you were not on it.
You would need to be careful with any trauma because of the increased risk of bleeding.
I hope this helps
