Fiasp causing bruising?

I have recently moved onto Fiasp after years of using Humalog. I haven't changed needles but I am bruising quite badly with every injection. Is this normal? I didn't get it unless I had a haematoma before

Many thanks

I'm bruising with Fiasp. I'm new to this so don't know what normal looks like.
 
I have periods where I bruise quiet a bit with Fiasp, so every so often I get a week where I seem to get a lot of bruises and then I go for months without seeing any - but then the same happened with Novorapid so I'm not convinced that Fiasp has anything to do with it for me at least.
 

Thanks Rokaab
I hope mine stops soon. Not a chance I could wear shorts atm (going to be a lovely weekend too) - but I look like I have taken a tumble down the stairs

"Periods" was the thing that was relevant for me. I bruise easily but bruise even more easily for about a week every month.
I now use a pump and only changed to Fiasp since pumping so can't really comment on whether it is more of a bruiser than NovoRapid.
However, for the first two of three months of Fiasp, I found it would sting when I bolused. I think my body has got used to it now and I no longer notice. But this could be related to the bruising.
 

Ah, I haven't had shark week yet Hopefully the bruising is not worse for me then!!
