What Could Be The Reasons For Bruise Under Arm Which Is Spreading And Sensitive Teeth?

I have a bruise under my left upper arm and it looks like it has spread since yesterday. I also have noticed a small white bump on my gums that connect to my lips. Its a little painful and my front teeth have become very sensitive. Do you know what this could be?

Hello,
Thanks for the query.

you might be having a low platelet count and hence you are developing these bruises.

Get your platelet levels checked.

Usually it takes around 2 weeks for the bruise to heal,

you can use oint thrombophobe to get a faster relief.

A photograph would have helped me better.

Please meet a dermatologist for exact diagnosis.

Let me know if you have any other doubt.
