What Causes Bruising A Little Above The Shin?
I have this bruise a little above my shin I got from playing soccer. The area that is tender is very large but not much discoloration. However when I put a lot of weight on the bruise, or it is slightly touched by something, or hit against something I get a burning pain in that area.

Thanks for contacting healthcare magic.
Little bruishing area that because of injury.
Injury cause blood collection under skin that cause bruishing area. Nerve injury may lead to burning pain.
Muscle strain or ligamental injury mostly cause pain .
Do one x ray.Any facture can detected by x ray.
Don't give too much stain over affected part.
If it is long standing than you have to consent a orthopaedic.
I hope my guidance is helpful to you.
Thank you very much.
