Question 7

is there any way to tell if dark skin under my big toenail is a bruise or not?

Accepted Answer

Dark mark: Hello. If you recall an injury, then it could be a small hematoma or bruise. It can last several weeks and like a bruise on the skin should change in color, size and even maybe in exact location. Could also be nail fungus (make sure it is not on the toenail). Lastly, if it has been there a while (a month or more), i would recommend a dermatologist see it. Rarely melanomas can be under the nail.

Question 8

i woke up this morning with a dark bruise on the bottom of my earlobe. i have not hit my head and it's not by a piercing.

Accepted Answer

Bruise : This may have been caused by pressure on the ear lobe while sleeping which caused a small blood vessel to rupture causing the bruise and is of no consequence and will gradually disappear

i have discoloration on my collarbone and now moved to only the front of my neck. it is not black but darker than my skin tone, looks almost bruised. ive had this for months now. no pain ?

Accepted Answer

See a doctor: this is an uncommon presentation without any simple answers. I think someone needs to see it with their own eyes

Question 10

i woke up one morning with a random darker skin coloured splotch on both of my boobs, my nipples look bruised, and they are soar. what's wrong?

Accepted Answer

Breast symptoms: Assuming no trauma was involved. including intimate relations, it makes sense to have a physician examine your breasts and rule out infection as well as cancer. Please make an appointment to see your PMD as soon as possible, if the symptoms and signs described continue without any aggravating physical trauma.
