Why Bruise Is Recurring In Lower Abdomen?
My daughter has a bruise on the lower right side of abdomen almost above her hip area. This is the third time in the last 3 months it has been occurring. It goes away but again comes back should I worry? The doctor checked her platelets they are normal.

Recurrent lesions over the gluteal/hip area can be a fungal infection...Are the itchy? If so, this again points towards a fungal infection...Nowadays this is quite a common condition...You should go to dermatologist and get done her skin scraping done for the diagnosis and take antifungals like oral fluconazole 300 weekly or oral terbinafine 250 once a day along with topical antifungals like sertaconazole or similiar creams for 2-4 weeks....I hope this would help...Thanks
