maybe you should go to a doctor and get it checked to see if anything else could be wrong. because you could have another underlying condition.

You should definately call the doctor if you have had it for a month now. Bruises that last for a long period of time could possibly be cancer, diabetes, or a circlatory problem. So contact your doctor as soon as possible. Bruises should not last more than 7 days without being examined.

How bad was it to begin with? Do you know how it happened or did it just appear? If it was a huge bruise from falling or something, it can take up to 8 weeks for it to go away. In any case, if you are worried or it is super painful, go to the doctor.

then it's not a bruise. I had a bruise on my toe when I broke a year ago, and my doctor said it was a hematoma (bruising in the deep tissues) and now one year later, my toe still hasn't healed. It's still swolen and bruised and the accident happened on January 31, 2005.

depends on how bad the bruise was, i got kicked in the arm and it took forever for the bruise to go away, but go to the doctor if you have any doubts
