Suggest Treatment For Purple Coloured Bruise On The Biceps
I woke up a few days ago and found a bruise on my bicep. It s about 1/2 in diameter. It s purple with a white center. There also appears to look like white dots around the purple area. It s tender to the touch. It looks similar to a booster shot scar. If you have any info I would appreciate it. Thank you.
It may be some insect bite like spider or bee sting. Take some anti-inflammatory tabs like Tab. Combiflam 1 bid for 3 days, apply Neosporin H cream for external use.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
Dr C.ELANCHEZHIAN, General & Family Physician
