What Does A Bruise On The Elbow Indicate?
I have bruising on the outside of my elbows , not on the bone but on the side kinda fleshy area. Thought is was resting my elbows on hard surfaces when doing computer work. No pain but is obvious to others who have asked what did you do to your elbows? Not going away after being trying to not rest elbows on hard surfaces.
