Hi,I am Dr. Gopal Goel (Orthopaedic Surgeon). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
My knees are very purple and my elbows are dark but not purple. My knees look like huge bruises. There is no itching or allergy as I have been trying to figure out what it is. It does not get worse or better just remains the same. I take several medicines and was wondering if you know which one(s) may cause this. Thank you for any help.
The dark knee can be related to hyper-pigmentation. Some medications can cause this side effect. Please send the names of the medications that you are taking for further evaluation.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Dorina Gurabardhi, General & Family Physician
