My 4 yr old daughter weighs about 50 lbs and is about 3 ft tall. She has a purplish circle with a hard whitish center. It looks like a bruise. The center is hard and seems to be pointy to the touch and has become somewhat larger than this morning. It is located beside her knee and she says it does not hurt. I can take a photo it and email or attach somehow.
Hi....by what you quote I feel that the kid might be having a bleeding disorder, either congenital or acquired... Mostly congenital, considering the age of presentation. The bluish discoloration you are noticing is a subcutaneous bleed or bruise and the small lump you are able to palpate is a subcutaneous blood clot. Skin conditions are best diagnosed only after seeing directly. I suggest you to upload photographs of the same on this website, so that I can guide you scientifically. I wish your kid a speedy recovery. If you need any future medical consultation and suggestions, I will be glad to help. You can approach me at the following link and post the photos and images there.
