alternate site testing.
2. Choose a different puncture site each time you test. Repeated
punctures in the same spot may cause soreness and calluses.
3. If bruising occurs at an alternate site or you have difficulty
getting a sample, consider sampling from a fingertip instead.
You may want to review the choice of sites with your
healthcare professional.
