A member asked:
Is it common for an outbreak of herpes on the inside of the leg to become dark and bruised?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Probably not herpes: Herpes outbreaks can occur in that area, but it's uncommon; and herpes usually doesn't appear dark or bruised. See a doctor -- but probably this isn't herpes. Good luck!
