What Causes Dark Spot Like Skin Bruise On Left Eye Corner?

A dark spot that looks like a bruise suddenly appeared on my skin, near the corner of my left eye. I went for a walk around the block, and the spot was there when I returned home. I don't recall any sort of injury. It isn't painful. I am a 68 year old woman, in what I believe is brelatively good health. YYYY@YYYY

Hi Dear ,

As per your query you have dark spot like skin bruise on left eye corner . Well there can be many reason for symptoms you mention in query like infection or inflammation of the skin of the eyelids and the periorbital area in the form of preseptal cellulitis and hematoma . I would suggest you to apply cold compresses to the affected area and take ibuprofen or acetaminophen if there is pain . If condtion doesn't get well then consult ophthalmologist for proper examination an rule out onditions like infection and injury . Doctor may prescribe antibiotics along with anti inflammatory .

Hope your concern has been resolved.
