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.
About 2 months ago, I found I had bruises on the left outter thigh. It itched badly. I looked up what could be causing this and it said a sever trauma can cause nerve damage and the itching is the nerves coming back. So I thought nothing of it. I ve tried to not itch. I just looked at my leg and there is a big black, red and brown discoloration exactly where it was before and itches BAD. Now, this time, I KNOW I didn t do anything to bruise it. I m starting to get worried it s more serious...
There can be various causes of discoloration in skin with itching and need a proper treatment but a physical examination is required. Thus, it is recommended for you to consult a physician personally for proper physical examination and further treatment.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Bhanu Partap, Cardiologist
