Suggest Treatment For Bruise On Varicose Veins

My 48 y/o husband who is on his feet all day has a what appears to be a bruise, shades of purple into a red. Some veracious veins have appears thru his work in a manufacturing setting over he years. But it s behind his knee and as it is swollen (the area), its more bruise appearance then veracious veins. Circulation concerns me since he has had a stroke before and now been on his feet for over 25 yrs. insight and tips appreciated.
