What Causes Bruised Tibia Inspite Of Taking Xarelto?
My father is taking Xarelto and has sustained what he thinks is a bruised tibia. The injury quickly bruised, slightly swollen, red and painful. Should he seek medical attention while taking the blood thinner or are there any symptoms he should monitor? Thank you
