Bruise in leg

2016-06-14 08:28:27
I have this bruise/ patch on my leg for a long time now.. Have used quadriderm, other creams as well but it doesnt go fully.. It gets white sometimes and is itchy also. Please suggest what to do in this case.

Greetings. Firstly- this looks like a lichen simplex chronicus. This is a patch caused due to constant regular itching and scratching. You must stop using quadriderm cream. Kindly see a qualified dermatologist near you / or you could book an appointment with Me on Practo. You'll need topical TCS cream prescription with anti histamines and also avoid scratching. Warm regards.
