Question : I have serveer pain in my calf. Noticed bruising below where the pain is. I'm icing it.
Brief Answer:
Can be injury.
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for posting your query.
Pain and bruising in the calf is suggestive of an injury in the area and an internal bleeding. if there is no history of injury then bleeding disorder or infection needs to be ruled out. This needs a proper examination and few investigations. Do consult an orthopedician regarding the same.
I hope this answers your query.
In case you have additional questions or doubts, you can forward them to me, and I shall be glad to help you out.
Wishing you good health.
