What Causes Bruise And Lumps On The Shin?

Hello in the past year I have discovered multiple bruise like looking marks on my shins and under most of them are hard lumps. Do you have any idea what these could be and if there is a treatment for them? I used to wear shorts and skirts but I am too concious of them because they look like lots of bruises on my legs and look unattractive. Thank you.

hi
hope this msg finds u in good health.
I have went through your complaints and understand your concern.
It seems you have a ultra sensitive skin which upon healing up from any sort of injury tends to look like a bruise.
But i feel there isnt anything to worry about.
you can apply skin nourishing creams or may b consult a dermatologist if it worsens.
Hope this answers your question.
If you have any follow up queries, feel free to get back to me.
thanks Take care god bless
