thigh bruising?

I keep getting really vicious bruises on the outside of my thighs a few inches below my hips

I have no idea what they’re from, they don’t really hurt when I touch them, do you think these could be from riding? I mean, can you get bruises just from sprinting?

i used to have the same thing back in my gunslingin’ days. but that was a long, long time ago.

how could a bruise on the outside of your thigh be from riding

From like, biking so hard your muscles are like POW and they just bruise you from the inside out!

From the inside… OUT!

When I first read the title of this thread, I thought it said “thigh bursting?”

Perhaps Jabba’s onto something here…

ive read that exercise can tear blood vessels

Tight jeans with keys in the pockets?

Yeah, quit riding in your one pair of jeans. Buy a pair of shorts.

Shorts with chamois.

Stuff in pockets? I don’t bruise easily so I can’t say I have this problem.

I am always getting bruises on my thighs, it is from bumping into tables, desks, beds, etc. but i never know where the bruise came from, maybe you are having the same issue?

On a somewhat unrelated note:
I used to wear 4" stilettos everyday, I mean I worked in a bookstore, so they were totally practical, anyway, one day I got this awful foot cramp and could hardly walk. Later on it developed into this bruise that was on the top and bottom of my foot, basically it went right through the middle. It was bizarre. I started wearing flats after that.

Maybe you should test this. Mark some test areas on your legs, and apply different types of damage.

Slap, hammer, freeze, pinch, abrase, press, and what ever might happen during the day.

^Sound advice from Mr. Lock.

I meant not to dishonor, sir.

This will never happen again.

Those bruises are from posting on messageboards. If you stop, they’ll go away in a couple of days.

lmfao

I used to get a lot of random bruises. Its caused by several things… thin blood (or prescribed blood thinners), hemophilia, or even taking NSAIDS, aspirin, etc. Any bruising of unknown origin should be suspicious… Outside of what I listed above only its mostly just liver disease, cirrhosis, etc and I doubt you have either of those…
