Hello,
You have developed bruise developed on your lower right abdomen. In a day it has grown bigger like fresh
internal bleeding. There is no soreness unless you lie flat. You have not mentioned about any fall, trauma or injury. If it is bruise due to trauma or some kind of injury it should go away with time. To reduce the presence of
blood clots beneath the skin you can apply ointment Thrombophob on the area affected.
It will help to relieve pain and inflammation by speeding up the healing process. But if you didn't suffer any trauma and discovered bruise suddenly, it may be indicative of
bleeding disorder,
low blood platelets, it can be due to the side effect of certain medications,
nutritional deficiency, etc. Take food rich in
vitamin C, vitamin K and iron. You can also take supplements.
Thrombophob ointment is also used to treat bruises and hematoma (collection of blood under the skin). You are suggested to get clinically examined by a GP to detect if the bruise is around the post operation site. You may have to get
skin biopsy done if required.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Nupur K., General & Family Physician
