A member asked:

Got up and felt dizzy. had to lay down b/c i almost passed out and saw i have a knot on my shin that came from nowhere. should i be concerned?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Shin knot: Getting up quickly may have caused a transient drop in your blood pressure, but if this happens often it should be investigated by your physician. I assume that the knot in your shin was a spontaneous leakage of blood from a fragile skin capillary and black and blue will follow.( Taking aspirin or Aleve,advil,etc can cause easy bruiSing). If this happens often, it too should be investigated.
