What Is The Discoloration On The Stomach?

I have a small long line of discoloration on the side of my stomach. Almost looks like a bruising or burn marks but they aren t. I ve gotten something like it before but it went away and I m very worried about how I got it. It s kind of in the pattern of a big heavy tire mark. Kind of a tread.

Hi.
Thanks for your query and an elucidate history.

The long of discoloration on the abdomen which you had in the past and again have got is suggestive of a condition called Phlebo-thrombosis'' of the vein . This is an idiopathic process. Idiopathic meaning no known reason for this condition.
'This is practically a self limiting condition and actually does not need any active treatment as such.
If you are worried about it , get this consulted by a Doctor and discuss about the condition I mentioned.
We do advise in some cases Doxycyclin , steroids and anti-inflammatory like serratiopeptidase.
Remember you can get this condition again.
So as a precaution, take plenty of oral fluids. do not do massage. Leave it as it is .
