A member asked:

I've bruising still from knee surgery over 2 months ago. when will it go awau?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Soon: Residual bruising from surgery 2 months ago should start to fade soon. Discuss with your surgeon and make sure he/she is aware of your concern. They may have a more complete explanation for the bruising. Sometimes skin pigmentation can be permanently altered by extensive bruising.
