Q: why has alarge bruise come up on breast near the shoulder 3 weeks after humerus fracture?should i be worried?

: Blood loss from the "fractured humerus" may take time to diffuse through tissue, and appearance as a bruise is a predictable consequence "three weeks after" the injury. This should gradually clear. See the treating physician for the fracture for guidance.
