Answered by Specialist II Vu Tu Nam - Center for Orthopedic Trauma & Sports Medicine, Vinmec Times City International Hospital.
Hello,
With the question “Is purple scar after foot injury okay? ”, the doctor would like to answer as follows:
You have a foot injury, it has been 3 - 4 weeks of scarring but is purple. New scarring is normal, it will gradually get better. Because the doctor doesn't know what kind of pain you have, he can't advise further. You can arrange to see an orthopedic specialist for further evaluation and advice.
If you still have questions about purple scars after foot injuries, you can go to a hospital of Vinmec Health System for further examination and advice. Thank you for trusting and sending questions to Vinmec. Wishing you lots of health.
Best regards!
