I had an accident last July 26, 2019. I fell down hard and I thought I only had scratches on my hand, knees and face. But after a while there was bruises on my face around the eyes making it look like I had a black eye. But thankful it has gone down.
I wear leggings and my house dress is below the knees. I was surprised a few days ago when the bruises appeared around my left knee. It was painful on the top part of my knees and kind of tender around. I have a high threshold of pain so it did not bother me that much. I was just surprised how ugly the bruises looked.
This is the top of my knees, you can see some little scratches.
How the bruises are on the inside part of my leg.
The outer part. I am big so my legs are big and so are the bruises.
I wonder what I can do to lighten them or remove them. There is just a little pain when you press on the top part but the sides not much. I just hope I don"t get into any more accidents,
It used to be only my right leg that was bothering me, now both legs! So I really need the use of my cane.
By the way I still can not make posts on the #ulog site because I can not log it, I hope I can soon.
