Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I have a large black and blue bruise on the side and bottom of my ankle. It seemed to disappear after 2 weeks, but is now reappeared and larger and on my foot as well. There is also a small puffy spot the size of a quarter above it, which is warm and hurts when I push against it. First I thought it might have been an insect bite, but it seems to have lasted too long.

What Causes Bruising On And Around The Ankle?
Hi, Possibly not resolved hematoma or bursa cyst around the ankle. The reasons may be compression from pressure, sitting postures or other joint related issues. If possible, kindly upload a photo picture of the bruise with a high-resolution camera and consult in follow up if you wish. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further. Regards, Dr. Purva Patel, General & Family Physician
