Suggest Treatment For Bruises In Thighs
I ve notice bruising appearing on the insides of both thighs for the past 6 to 8 weeks. it appears to form in lines usually running down to my knees. it will heal up then out of nowhere I notice the bruising is back a couple days later. I thought it might have to do with leg workouts but I stopped lifting 2 weeks ago and its still doing it

Hi,
Thank you for providing the brief history of you.
A thorough clinical assessment is advised.
As you noticed bruises in the inner thigh, you should check your clothing as this can be due to that as well. Also some are reactive to the sweat and needs a dermatolgists advise as his insight will be worth.
Also, bruises can occur due to friction and take some time to heal. So using the icing technique will be of good to get relief of it.
In our clinical practice when people complain of bruises we check their clothing, look for dermatologists input and also change of exercise. This has helped understand and help them better.
Regards
