I have a recurring bruise on the exact same spot on my thigh. I am a 20 year old female. The bruise will slowly come, stay a while, and then go away just to come back again. I've paid attention and have not run into anything any of the times. What could it mean?

I slipped on a grape in the grocery store 3 weeks ago, I caught myself, unfortunatly with the bottom of the cart hitting the front of my right chin , it left a bruise and a knot which are still very sore and the bruise isn t fading. Any suggestions? It s just sore I can walk fine and really it doesn t look that bad just discolored more of an inside type bruise with a touch of surface bruising. The knot is maybe the size of a quarter.

I have found a bruise on my forearm after showering last night. There was also a lump or swelling underneath which was quite pronounced. This morning the lump has gone down a little. The only thing I can think of is on Wednesday I was in hospital and had my blood pressure taken and it was very tight. Otherwise no pain or anything else.
Hi,
Welcome to HCM.
You can apply a ointment thrombophob ( heparin benzyl nicotinate ) locally over the bruise to reduce the inflammation. The ointment will help to increase the blood supply over the skin.
Application for 1-2 days should help the bruise/ lump get well.
However, if there is no...

Hi,
Just apply a streoid based cream like mometasone two times in a day over affected area and avoid sun exposure. If your skin feels dry, use a good bland medicated moisturiser to soothe your skin. Its not a bruise and it will not scar. If in 4 or 5 days you dont get much response contact your...

Hi welcome to health care magic forum.
It appears that you have some problem with the coagulation factors of blood. You may be tested for the bleebing and clotting time, and if some thing wrong is found, you have to be tested for hematology.
I advise you to consult a hematologist for diagnosis...

my son was kicked in the inner calf about 10 days ago while palying soccer. first it bruised black and since the past two days there is a golf size lump in the center of the bruise that feels squishy to the touch (not read or warm). no pain involved. what's the treatment?
hi; he could be having a haematoma due to injury. if there are no other symptoms simple pain killer should be enough for pain. unless infected no need for antibiotic it will resolve on its own
