What Is The Treatment For Black And Blue Bruise Under The Arms?
I have black and blue bruise like areas under both arms. This occurred after a stroke and surgery on my carada artery. I have no paralysis or speech problems as a result of the stroke. The stroke occurred on May 13 of this year and surgery on the 19th.

bHi thanks for using HCM
Here the black or blue colour in the axilla is not due to stroke and surgery of heart.
This is called ERYTHRASMA.
Tab Erythromycin 500 mg bid for 5 days.
Application of Clotrimazole cream and terbinafine lotion on both sides of axilla
will give good result. Thank you
