What Causes Green Purple Bruise On Upper Middle Thigh?

I ve had a bruise for at least a year and a half. It could definitely have been longer but I m not sure. It s green with some purple on the upper middle part of my right thigh on the side of it. It s at a bit bigger than a quarter in an oval-ish shape. I can t touch it because of a dull pain that happens. It doesn t fade and it doesn t ever go away. What s happening and what can I do about it?

Hello,

I can't say exactly what might be but you can talk with your doctor and he or she probably can order an ultrasound of that area to see exactly what's that. Probably a little problem with the vessels or muscles of that area.

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

Regards,
Dr. Jolanda Nikolla, Pulmonologist
