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 woke up two days ago with a needle mark type bruise on my upper but, now it has grown in size and have another bruise mark below. the initial mark was dark bruse but has lightened and the additional lighter grey. could it have been a bite or something and if its lightening in color is that a sign its going away thanks
The rashes might be insect bites. If you stay in warm climate with rains, you might be exposed to lots of teeming insect population during rains.
Allergy to something might also lead to rash. But since your rash is localised, it might be contact dermatitis. It is caused due to allergy to something that comes in touch with skin and affect local area only normally.
Since it is already getting cleared, avoid scratching.
Apply Himalaya Anti Itch Ayurvedic cream for early healing. This cream also works on bruise.
Avoid wearing synthetic undergarments. Avoid using tampons, panty liners for longer than 4 hours.
This is a suggestion based on your information. Kindly contact a physician if required.
Best wishes!
