Having Dark, Purple Bruise On Abdomen With Fine Bumps Around The Limning Of The Bruise, Itching. What Could This Be?
Okay, I have this really dark, purple bruise on the left side of my abdominals. It s in the shape of an almost perfect circle, with some really fine bumps clustered around the lining of the circle and then some a bit scattered in the middle. i don t recall bumping into anything that would cause this bruise and it appeared seemingly out of nowhere and itches a lot. Any ideas as to what this is?
From the brief details, it seems that the lesion is due to fungal infection. Regular application of fluconazole ointment 3-4 times daily will eradicate the infection.
Consult your doctor who will prescribe an appropriate anti-fungal ointment.
