Painless Bruise On Top Of The Foot, Fatigue. Reason?
Hello
Thanks for your query.
I will try my best to provide you with best possible professional recommendations to your questions.
When tiny blood vessels called capillaries break, burst or develop a slight leak under the skin, it may cause unexplained bruising. Most of the time, bruises appear after one bangs or hits oneself to something hard.
I think unknowingly hit your leg to coat or wall near by during sleep which might have caused it.
I don't think you need to worry if you have only one bruise on the leg. I advice you to search for any other such lesion in the body.
If multiple bruises with no injury indicate thrombocytopenia, Marfan's syndrome
Ehlers-Danlos syndrome, Scurvy, Vitamin K Cream can be used.
I advice you to follow the conservative approach, you should be fine in 3 to 4 days.
In case if it persists more 10 days/ multiple bruises found, XXXXXXX the physician for examination.
Yet again, I do hope that you have found something helpful and I will be glad to answer any further query.
Hope i have cleared your queries. If you do not have any clarifications, you can close the discussion and rate the answer
