Suggest Remedy For Bruises On The Leg And Shin
I fell five days ago. I had a bit of bleeding on my left knee and right hand as well as some shoulder pain. The shoulder pain went away. The knee is still tender. Three days after the fall, I noticed new bruises appearing on my left leg on the shin and calf. I have not cut back on physical activity since the fall, and I have no other symptoms. Is the delayed bruising something to worry about?

5 to 15 days is normal healing time so no need to worry nut if it persists after 15 days u may be required to investigate by a physician
