Spreading Bruise On Upper Abdomen. Have Lp Shunt On Right Side, Lap Band. No History Of Fall. Ideas?

I woke up yesterday with a bruise on my upper abdomen that is spreading. It starts on right side where the bruise was really dark when I woke up and now this morning there are more bruises coming through across the upper part of my abdomen. I did not fall or anything like that. I do have a lp shunt on the right side as well as a lap band.

Hi, it appears that you have an utricaria, and it is spreading, may be due to some allergen which you have exposed since just yesterday.
Try to find out the cause, and if you can find the cause try to omit. If not consult a physician for diagnosis and treatment. thank you.
