Worried For White Marks On Thigh After A Hit By Ball
I was struck by a line-drive during softball and have a large white round spot assuming where the ball hit, then fades to red, blotchy purple then a green bruise it occurred less than 24 hours ago, but is sensitive to touch and hot. Should I be concerned with the white mark and the fact its on my thigh next to major artery?
