I was fortunate to never develop a hematoma after any of my 3 ablations. I did have bruising and tenderness. And after one of my ablations I did have some pain down the right leg only. It hurt to sit and I had to keep the leg straight out in front of me. I assume the nerve may have been bruised a bit. With your hematoma, it's probably putting pressure on a nerve that causes that deep ache. Getting a hematoma is not that rare but it will take weeks to resolve.

I don't know about the dizziness. I was a bit tired the first day or so but not dizzy. It's only been a couple of days for you. If you don't improve or if you get worse, definitely check in with your cardio's office and ask them if this is normal.
