Bruises (contusions)

What could cause a scab on your leg with a black and blue bruise around it?

Please see your doctor as soon as you can. It could be anything from a bug bite (the problem is, what type of bug or spider bite) to other problems due to circulatory problems within the leg. If you are 35 years and younger this is highly doubtful. If you were out drinking the night before or even playing sports you may remember hurting yourself. It's best to have it checked out by your doctor. Meanwhile, bath it with epsom salt, put a clean bandage on it to keep your clothing from rubbing on the scab. Usually a scab means you are healing, but unless the bruise is starting to turn yellow (a healing sign) get to the doctor. Its an impact wound that was hard enough to break the skin. It should go away in a few weeks. You could have hit a coffee table and not remembered it, or sleepwalked. The scab should fall off in a couple days. Dont pick it off, its natures bandaid and keeps the wound from any infection.

When you hit your head what causes the bump?

When you bump your head, you cause damage to various cells that make up your tissues. Consequently, the cells release prostoglandins and other molecules, including vasodilators and constrictors, that activate an immune response. Specifically, they modulate a non-specific inflammatory response, which, in a nutshell, causes increased blood flow to the damaged area (simplified version). The whole purpose of the increased blood flow is to allow the transport of critical immune molecules (neutrophils, monocytes, lymphocytes) to the site of damage so that they may begin the repair process.

Why--ankle swell and black and blue?

An ankle can swell and turn black and blue from a simple twisting injury, or a sprain injury. It doesn't need to cause a fracture to bruise or swell. And because the ankle is a fairly small area, the swelling can seem pretty drastic. If you fell, ask a Dr if you need an X-ray. If no break, elevate it, put ice on (10-15 minutes on, then off), keep it elevated, try to avoid weight-bearing, and if the dr agrees, you could wrap it with an Ace bandage. Make sure the Ace is not too tight. Wrap from toes UP around the ankle. Never wrap from ankle to toes, or your toes will swell. Ace works by helping fluid (in swelling) go upward to the heart.

What is the punishment for leaving a bruise on your child accidentally when spanked for the first time and school reports the bruise to defacs in Georgia?

The outcome depends on many complex factors. The worst: If they think that child OR other children in your home are at risk, they can legally remove all your children from your home. IF you try to prevent it, the police can arrest you. Let them take the kids and call an attorney. Do everything Child Welfare asks of you.

However, if Child Welfare uses common sense and truly evaluates you AND your home and the child is NOT at imminent risk, they may require you to take parenting classes. You will probably be REQUIRED to sign a contract to not use physical punishment again. The risk with hitting, spanking, paddling is it CAN cause welts, bruises, or cuts---even if you did not mean to do that. It is sobering when one extra slap leaves a mark on your child. Even more sobering to hear from Child Welfare. Probably the hardest thing-- DEFACS will now be in your life for a period of time. Even harder--- facing your child and somehow having the courage to say "I'm sorry I hurt you. It is not your fault that mommy got in trouble." Please don't make the child responsible for telling.

Resolve to do whatever it takes to keep your child/children, even things that might seem "unfair". And resolve to use a different form of punishment for your kid/s--- and your own sake.
