What Causes Small Bruises On The Inner Thigh Area?
About 5 weeks ago I noticed two straight lines of bruises on my inner thighs, both sides, nearly the entire thigh just over a centimeter or so wide. I had assumed that perhaps they were caused by the seams of jeans or something similar. I ve made a point to wear very loose fitting pants without any seams since then. There is no pain but also the bruising is still visible. Just a dull looking bruise that won t go away. What could this be?

Hi, Thanks for choosing HCM,
This could be LINEA ALBICANS.
Rupture of epidermis due to extreme stretching.
I see plenty of cases in my clinic.
It won't give any problem.Only disfiguring.
My opinion is that you should not worry about it.
1) Apply Moisturizer on that part daily.
2) Cap vitamin E 400 mg daily morning.
3) Alium Septa, Allantoin and Aloevera combination cream will give good result.
Wish you good health.
