Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
What Are Pain In Forearm With Bruises On Arms And A Leg Suggestive Of?
My 21 year old daughter is complaining of pain in her left forearm. She also has some small bruises on both arms and one on her leg. She says that she has not bumped into anything nor has she been hit. Could these things be related? She says she can wait to see a doctor tomorrow as today is a holiday. Should I be worried?
I would explain that the bruises could be related to a possible trauma. I think the situation is not an emergency, and it can wait until consulting with her doctor.
Anyway, I would recommend performing some blood lab tests after consulting with her doctor (complete blood count, PCR, ESR, coagulation tests, liver function tests).
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
Dr Ilir Sharka, Cardiologist
