Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I fell in the bath and over streched the inner part of my leg under the groin. I think a vein burst and there is huge bruising (5" x 10" aprox) black and red. What is worring me is that it seems to be a hardening in the area where the vein burst and it is very tender to the touch. Is there anything to worry about?
hello dear, it looks as if u have injured one of the blood vessels , and there is bruising that has occured.kindly visit a nearby dr, and get urself treated. u can try, arnica200,4 pills 3 times a day for 3 days.
How do you know it's a vein? Did you feel a snap, like you've been kicked? Are you sore and are your leg and ankle swollen? Is there a bruised look where you felt what you feel is a burst vein?
