Suggest Treatment For Small Bruises On The Breast

Hello, I have 3 small bruises (next to each other) on my left breast. They have been there over a week and have not changed or gone away. They don t hurt and I am pretty sure I didn t hurt myself. I have been super freaked out thinking I have cancer. Are there any other possibilities of what this could be? I have also had cysts in my breasts in the past but was told they were harmless.

Dermatologist,  's  Response
Hello,
Thanks for the query.

He might be having a low platelet count and hence he is developing these bruises.

Get his platelet levels checked.

Usually it takes around 2 weeks for the bruise to heal,

He can use oint thrombophobe to get a faster relief.

A photograph would have helped me better.

Please meet a dermatologist for exact diagnosis.

Let me know if you have any other doubt.
