30cm bruse not going away after 6 months
In October 2006 I fell down a flight of stairs, got bruised pretty badly on my left leg and twisted my ankle.
Problem now, is that I still have this large light purple/blue stain on my leg of approximately 30cm long, which doesn’t want to disappear.
Is there anything I can do to remove this unsightly bruise?

Dear Christal
You probably have broken veins in that area - I would suggest a lazer clinic or dermatologist - will probably need lazer treatment.
