Large Deep Purple Bruise On The Left Side Of Body At The Belt Level. Should I Be Concerned ?
I noticed a rather large bruise on the left side of my body just above the hip at about belt level. I have no recollection of hitting anything, and the bruise is not painful. But it looks rather nasty. It s oval shaped, about 2 inches long X 1 inch high, deep purple in colour with some light pink in the middle. Just noticed it today. Should I be concerned?
