Hello,
Thanks for your query.
I go through you query.
Dont worry.
I think your condition occurs due your age. Because elderly skin become thinner and prone to develop bruise in minor trauma.
Possibilities of this type of condition are-
1.Platelet disorder
2.Bleeding disorder
3.Elderly
My advise is visit a doctor.
Do blood test to exclude the other causes.
you can try cold compression, give rest, if pain use painkiller like aceclofenac, ketorolac etc.
I think it will help you.
Wish your good health
With regards
Dr. Atique
