What Does A Bruise On The Leg Indicate?
I just noticed that I have some bruising around the sockline on my right leg, as well as a small goose egg sized bump on the side of my shin, both of which did not seem to be present yesterday or before. Neither one is painful. Should I be concerned?

Hello,
Is there any itching/redness? Is there any pain? I suggest you keep an Ice pack on the respective area, it will reduce the swelling. If you have any pain then take tablet Paracetamol TDS(thrice daily after food) for 3 days. If symptoms persist I suggest you to consult a physician...
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Indhu Priyadharshini
