Bruising

Purpura

Bruising occurs when small blood vessels are damaged and leak blood beneath the skin, causing discoloration, tenderness, or swelling. Bruises commonly develop after bumps, falls, medical procedures, or from medications that increase bleeding. They often change from blue or purple to green, yellow, or brown as they heal. Most resolve within two weeks, but frequent, unexplained, or unusually large bruises may require medical evaluation.
