Suggest Remedy For Bruises In Thigh
I am a 60 yr old widow, with no health issues, weigh 126#. Last night I noticed a very dark large reddish-purple bruise on my upper inner thigh, about 2 from the crotch area. I bruise easily, but it s just a very odd place to get a bruise. It almost looks like it s bleeding. I don t recall any injury or anything that may have caused it. It doesn t hurt, doesn t itch. Any reason to be concerned???

Hello,
I would explain that your symptoms could be related to a coagulation disorder. For this reason, I recommend consulting with your attending physician for a physical exam and performing some blood lab tests (complete blood count, coagulation tests, liver function tests).
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Ilir Sharka, Cardiologist
