What Causes Bruise On Leg?

Hi I have had about three different times, unexplained bruising on the front of my leg where my shin is and a lump underneath the skin that swells up and hurts to the touch. I went to see the doctor the second time this occured and she said it was shin splints but I hadn t done much of any excerise at that time and no injury to it. So I just went on and now I have it for the third time and same situation. Can you tell me what you think might be happening to me?

Hi,
We need more details like exact size, shape, and colour. Also, is there any fever associated? This may suggest other conditions like erythema nodosum.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Muhammed Aslam T. K., Pediatrician
