Choose a different puncture site each time you test.
Repeated punctures in the same spot may cause
soreness and calluses.
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.
