What Could Cause Bruise On Back?
I have an unexplained, reddish-purple threadlike bruise on my back... Slightly above the middle and slightly to the right of center. It doesn t hurt, but it s been unchanged since I noticed it earlier this week. I m frequently tired and don t have much of an appetite. I also have cramping, aching back pain, but it doesn t feel like muscle cramping. It is more inside my back ribs. I am a 41-year-old female.

Hello,
The bruise in the area suggests a soft tissue injury with a collection of blood in the area. You can take oral muscle relaxants and have rest and see if it gradually heals.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Praveen Tayal, Orthopaedic Surgeon
