Hi,I am Dr. Gopal Goel (Orthopaedic Surgeon). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Hello,
I played soccer and got hit very hard on my inner shin, right below the kneecap. It was swollen and very heavily bruised now. It it very sensitive to the touch in that area. About a week later my inner ankle right below the ankle bone became bruised and only after about two days the whole area is a very dark purple which somewhat makes a defined stopping line at the heal. The ankle bone on the outer side of my foot is also slightly purple. Today, I feel as though my whole leg is numb and seems to be getting worse. There is no pain at all on my ankle but seems to be getting more and more purple. Wondering if this is serious or what could have caused it? Should I be concerned?
