Suggest Treatment For A Large Circular Bruise On The Lower Back
My husband has a large circular bruise on his lower back. He has not injured it recently. I didn t notice it yesterday or even earlier today. In the middle of the bruise along the spine is a chicken foot shaped outline where there is no bruising. I find the bruise to be rather bizarre and alarming. He s not in any pain.

Hi,
It seems that probably your husband is having ecchymosis due to trauma. Kindly consult the dermatologist for the perfect diagnosis. Apply thrombophob ointment on the patch. And vitamin C tablet may be taken by him... This would clear the patch in few weeks.
I hope you got my answer.
Thanks..
