What Causes A Yellow Bruise On Upper Arm?
Yellow bruise on upper right arm?
So this yellow patch that appears to be a bruise started out just as a sore area on my arm, no discoloration. Then a purple-ish blue little dot appeared. Then about a day or so later it started turning yellow all around that area. It's about 8 days later, the dot is gone but the yellow is still there. Weird? (BTW I don't really know how I would've bumped my arm in that area.)
