What Do Bruises All Over The Arms And Thighs Indicate?

My wife and I both woke up yesterday with bruising all over our arms and inner thighs. We went to the ER, they ran blood tests and had no idea the cause. We went out for dinner the evening before, and are curious if this could be from a parasite contracted from the food perhaps?

Hello,

Yes, it can be an allergic reaction to the food intake you had last night. In this condition, usually anti-histaminic like Cetirizine, Levocetirizine will be of great help.

Get it prescribed by any practitioner nearby since it is the prescription drug.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Archana
