Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
As per your case history of bruise on arm, my treatment advice is:
1. Don't squeeze the lesions as it may worsen the condition.
2. Apply a mild antibiotic cream like Fusiderm cream.
3. Take a NSAID like ibuprofen. Consult your physician for prescription.
4. Other treatment options are oral antibiotics like levofloxacin and azithromycin to be taken only after consulting a dermatologist.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
