Unexplained Bruising?

Hi all,

Looking for the collective wisdom of Mumsnet here! I need to know if I'm worrying for no reason...

Yesterday I had a couple of minutes (whilst hoovering!) of a really itchy thigh. Had to stop what I was doing and scratch it (through my trousers, so not hard). I then carried on what I was doing and didn't think anymore about it.

This morning, I woke up to these random bruises on my thigh. I definitely haven't bumped into anything, and it's exactly where was briefly itchy. The first two pictures were taken this morning, and the other two tonight.

Any ideas if I should be concerned?

So not to drop feed, I'm female, 39.

Thanks

It might be nothing but this is definitely some you need to see the doctor about, like tomorrow while it's still there, keep the photo for doctors, i don't know how your GP works but I can email photos in. Do you take blood thinners or aspirin?

@yamafi thank you for replying.

No, nothing like that. I'll send the photos to the GP tomorrow.

Okay, hopefully it's nothing to worry about 🙏💛
