What Causes Unexplained Bruise On Thigh With A Red Dot In The Middle?
hi im very concerned about a bruise on my left thigh, It appeared yesterday, its a bruise just a little bigger than a 1p peice and in the middle of the bruise is a red dot but around the dot is a white circle thats smaller than the bruise. My thighs have been hurting me it feels as though my thighs are swollen there are no other bruises or anything that could relate to this and never had a bruise like this before. Can you help?
