Suggest Remedy For Persistent Bruise On Shin And Lump On Calf From An Injury
I have black & blue marks on my shins that won t go away and a little lump on my calf. These could have been originally caused by injury, but they have been there too long. Painless and I also run 3-6 miles a day with no adverse effects. Should I be concerned?
how long has the bruise been there? usually, it takes about a week, and it resolves on its own. if it persisted, a consult with your doctor may be needed for clinical evaluation. a cold compress application might be of help temporarily.
hope this helps.
good day!!
