How To Get Rid Of Bruises On The Inside Of The Arm?

Hi doctor... Around 3 weeks ago, I got a bruise on the inside of my arm.. Around 5 cm above my wrist. Around 4 hours Prior to the bruise I got a sun tan( which I didn t tan for a long time..) I got really drunk that night and forgot how I got the bruise... But the bruise somehow didn t go away.. Plus there is some light pinkish colorless little dots forming in the middle of the bruise... I wonder what causes this to happen? ( I haven t put on any cream or ointment to the bruise until 3 days ago when I find out the bruise isn t going away although it doesn t hurt.. Plus it formed those tiny dots that doesn t look too pleasing when looking at it closely..) please let me know what might be causing these symptoms... Much thanks... Daryl

Hi,

It is ecchymosis due to oozing the blood in dermis caused by trauma. Do not worry it may vanish in about two weeks. Apply Thrombophob ointment on the patch and take tab. vitamin C supplement. Take precautions to avoid trauma and do not drink in excess.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
