What Causes Red Bruise Above The Left Knee?
Hi, I have a spot that looks like a bite a few inches above my left knee. It s a lump and sore but doesn t itch. After it came out, my knee started hurting and there are a few more smaller red bruise-like bumps on both knees and now my elbows too- all sore. What does this sound like?
