Hi, a large bruise appeared on my thigh yesterday. I was in bed asleep, my partner came up and noticed it, but it wasn t there earlier. Afterwards I felt pain above that bruise. Today a second extremely large bruise has appeared above it. My thigh is practically covered with a dark purple bruise. I feel some strange pain that seems to move through this same thigh and tonight has worked up and feel in my lower/side/back
It may be ecchymoses. It is a purpura patch due to blood oozed in dermis. Cause may be unknown.Consult the dermatologist for the perfect diagnosis and proper treatment. I would recommend you to take vitamin C 1000 mg thrice a day. Apply thrombophob oint. on the patch.
Hope this helps.
