I fell over 2 weeks ago on my knee on asphalt. It wasn t very deep but it still hurt! It has scabbed up and was healing good. Now two weeks later I fell on it again but in a gym and I pretty much just landed on the scab full force didn t scrap it or anything and the scab lifted and started bleeding but the blood was very dark and thick/clotted. Why is this? And is it going to take longer to heal?
Hello, Thank you for your contact to Chat Doctor. I understand your concern. If I am your doctor I suggest you that dark and thick blood has nothing to do with healing, it will occur with its own. Second time thick blood occurs because body wants to contain the blood in the system. Previous injury this thick blood will help you will be happy to answer your further concerned can contact me.
