10 Pulled Hamstring Symptoms
Symptom #9: Bruising
If you pull a muscle then the chances are that you will be pulling the surrounding blood vessels as well. This can cause them to become broken and that would cause blood to leak out. This would then cause a bruise, which is a patch of skin that appears darker because of the presence of blood just beneath the surface.
Bruising is not usually something to be concerned about in itself. The body will automatically begin to fix the leak and the leaked blood will eventually be transported away. There are also remedies you can try that can help the bruising to go away faster.
