Understanding Contusions

Contusions, commonly known as bruises, are injuries to the skin and underlying tissues without breaking the skin. They occur when small blood vessels under the skin burst due to trauma, causing blood to leak into the surrounding tissues. This results in the characteristic discoloration and swelling of a bruise. Contusions can be caused by falls, blows, or any impact that crushes the underlying muscle fibers and connective tissue without breaking the skin.

Schedule an Appointment

If you observe these symptoms in your child and are concerned about a bruise, especially if it is large, painful, or does not improve over time, it is important to seek a comprehensive evaluation from a healthcare professional. Scheduling an appointment with us can help in obtaining a proper diagnosis and developing an effective treatment plan to manage your child’s injury and ensure proper healing.

Recognizing Symptoms of Contusions

You might notice several signs in your child that could indicate a contusion:

  • Discoloration: The skin over the injured area may appear red, blue, purple, or black as blood leaks from broken vessels.

  • Swelling: Swelling around the bruised area as a result of fluid accumulation.

  • Pain: Tenderness and pain at the site of the injury, especially when touched or moved.

  • Stiffness: Reduced range of motion in the affected area due to pain and swelling.

  • Warmth: The bruised area may feel warm to the touch as the body responds to the injury.
