Suggest Treatment For Small White Bruises On The Leg
I have a big softball size bruise on my right outer leg from coming down off the counter and landing on a turning cupboard. The bruise is now purple outside with a red inside but with 2 completely white dots on the purple part of the bruise. Any idea what those dots could mean?

Hi,
You seem to have hematoma. Kindly consult dermatologist to have firm diagnosis. Necessary investigations may be done to rule out internal and blood diseases.
I would suggest to apply thrombophob ointment on the lesion. Vitamin C and K tablets may be taken. If needed,antibiotics may be taken.
I hope you got my answer.
Thanks.
