What Causes A Bruise On The Wrist?

Yes. I had a very black bruise come up on my left wrist. I did know how I bruised it, so I ignored it. It is about an inch and a quarter long by a inch wide. It is healing in a weird way. It has turned into a wring with flesh in the middle. However, there is a lump in the middle that is a bit painful. Any suggestions? In all my years, and all my hundred of bruises, I have never had one like this

Hi,

There is the possibility of organized hematoma beneath the skin from possible previous injury of subcutaneous vessel most likely.

If the photo picture of the same is provided in follow up the conversation a better insight can be made further for the management guidelines.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
