General & Family Physician, Dr. Vasudha's Response
Hi,
I feel possibility of high blood pressure due to chronic renal/urinary problem. This can cause the dizzy spell and balancing problem you faced. Please get it checked and treated. The bruising felt under the skin is a neurological symptom. X-ray of lumber spine would find possible problem of lumber vertebra. It can be be due to some local swelling pressing the peripheral nerves too. Physiotherapy and vitamin B12 supplement would help. For personalized advice need investigations after physical examination, consult your family physician and an orthopedic surgeon if he advises.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards, Dr. Vasudha Jayant Athavale, General & Family Physician
