What Causes Bruises With Lumps In Lower Legs With Extreme Pain?

Hello, My 28 year old daughter has been having bruises with lumps under them appearing on her lower legs. Her legs ache and hurt a lot. This has been ongoing for awhile now. Someone said this could be related to Lupus. Should she be tested for Lupus? Do you have any ideas what may be causing this problem for her?

Hi,
It could be Lupus or some Coagulation problem.
Please see a Physician who would advice you some blood tests and maybe an FNAC. Get these done and wait for the results. It should not be anything serious I feel but please get her investigated thoroughly. The more you delay the more you will worry.
You need a complete thorough examination as these symptoms could result from a whole range of conditions and at present it is very difficult for me to comment without examining the patient.
Take care,
Dr Rishi, New Delhi, India.
