I got kicked in the leg really hard three or four weeks ago. There was a large bruise but it has disappeared completely now. There is still a large bump on my leg though. It is very hard to the touch but it only hurts when a lot of force is applied. Will this disappear soon?
As per your case history, you are having a purpuric rash. My treatment advice is - 1. Don't squeeze the lesion as it may worsen the condition. 2. Apply a soothing lotion like calamine lotion on affected region twice daily. 3. Take a vitamin c supplement once daily for 3 months. 4. Other treatment options are oral multivitamins and topical steroid given only after consulting a dermatologist. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
