How To Remove Old Yellow Bruise From Leg?

My 6 year old son has what I thought to be old bruises on his leg -more spots are appearing and run down his thigh only on one leg. He has no complaints but the area is not resolving? No pain, no redness just faded yellow bruise like areas (looks like an old healing scrape) but has been present for a couple months - thoughts?
