What Does A Bruise Like Discoloration On The Web Of The Thumb Indicate?
I have just noticed a bruise like discoloration, about the size of a quarter, on the back of my right hand below the forefinger s knuckle, on the web to the thumb . It was not there yesterday. There is no pain or even skin tenderness, and it does not itch. What might have caused it to appear?

Hello,
If it is a bruise that you can't remember hurting it anywhere it can be while on blood thinners. They can be caused by minor trauma that you can't even remember. Please consult your doctor about blood thinners.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
