What Causes Purple Bruising Along With Fluid Drainage Around The Elbow?
I woke up about 4 days ago with what I guess is fluid , on my elbow. It felt like a bruise as well but I hadn t had any kind of accident and haven t bumped it either. As the day went on, it became purple. Since then the purple has continued to spread all around my elbow. The fluid had gone down some but now it is back again. Any ideas on what this could be?
HI Well come to HCM I really appreciate your concern, this may not be fluid inside the elbow joint but this could be arthritis condition and this needs some investigation and consultation too for confirmation of diagnosis but this is not the fluid, hope this information helps, take care and have a nice day
