Please visit a Dermatogolist (skin specialist) ... this could foe various reasons... also check your blood sugar levels (usually recommended if the would takes time to heal).... it might be some sort of infection.

Cancer is caused by poor nutrition (including oxygen) and stressors. Stressors can be environmental, like heavy metals, food additives or pollution, or emotional or job stress.
Our bodies have 60 trillion--yes, trillion--cells, and there are always some mutating into cancer cells, but a healthy immune system kills them before they have a chance to get a foothold in the body.
It takes a LONG time, usually, or an exrtaordinary amount of stressors, to degrade the immune system to the point where it won't do its job, but once cancer has formed, it can spread rapidly.
THIS IS IMPORTANT! There are ways to BEAT cancer that the AMA is keeping from the American public, that are being used in Europe and around the world. Here is some information that is getting hard to find--"The Cure for All Cancers", ISBN 0963632825; "A Cancer Therapy", ISBN 0882681052; "Hydrogen Peroxide--Medical Miracle", ISBN 1885236077; "The Natural Cure for Cancer--Germanium", ISBN 0533071410; and "Killing Cancer", ISBN 0705000966.
Type 'used books' into your browser and find a good site, then type in the ISBN numbers and get some great help cheap.
I know of people whose cancer has 'spontaneously remitted' (WENT AWAY for no known reason) after they went on a program of herbs and nutrition.
The American Medical Association and the pharmaceutical companies control medical law in this country, and they are in it for the money, and don't care about individuals. You and your family must look out for yourselves to stand a chance of being healthy.
This is not a joke. Look into it. Best of luck

Because your bruise is not following a normal pattern for healing (indicated by color changes at the site), I would recommend that you have your bruise looked at by a professional. Causes for delayed healing can best be determined by someone who can see the injury and who knows your health history. Please do not jump to any conclusions (especially to a diagnosis as unlikely as cancer)!
In the mean time...
Try applying moist heat to the site (If it has been more than 48 hours since your injury).
Elevate the limb above the level of your heart.

Yes it could be leukemia. Probably not, but it is nothing to wait around about. The sooner you find out about it the more they can do for you. Leukemia is one of the cancers that we have accomplished a lot with over the last 30 years. It used to be 20% cured, But most leukemia is now about 80% curable. Just stop asking any more questions on this silly medium and get the real story from your doctor...

You need to make an appointment with your Doctor ASAP don't put it off you may have something but that would be up to your Doctor to decide what it is & what the best treatment is.
Try to stay positive it is probally something that diet & exercise will fix.
Best of Luck

It could be a busted vein or a blood clot. Definitely get it checked right away. Busted veins are ok blood clots can get loose and travel to your heart and brain.

Go to the doctor as soon as possible.
This happened to my brother and he found it to be a quick spreading leukemia.
I am not trying to scare you,but it's worth a blood test to put your mind at ease.

Cancer is not genetic. Why have you not been to see a doctor about this?
