What Causes Mild Headache, Yellowish Bruise On Left Breast And Bruises On Legs?
Hi, I m usually fit and well but recently I have been experiencing mild head aches then a few days later a yellow bruise appeared on my left breast and today I have noticed blood spots and small purple dot sized bruises all over my legs with severe headaches
Though bruise on the breast may not be a cause of concern or anything serious but it is better not to ignore it. Get clinically assessed to detect if it is discoloration or bruise. Discoloration may be indicative of breast cancer. Redness on the breast is a classic symptom of breast cancer. Bruises associated with headache may be migraine. Take Sumatriptan one SOS for relief. Myelodysplastic Syndrome may also cause bruises. Get CBC, bone marrow biopsy & chromosomal examination done. diagnosis is not easy, but once detected & confirmed it can be treated. You can apply vitamin K based creams on the bruises.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Nupur K, General & Family Physician
