I'm on day 2 of a 5-7 day water fast. Before the fast, I did a raw veggie day and a juice day. I noticed, however, that a cut I had on my leg prior to my fast (I got cut 3 days before I started raw veggie day) now has a bruise around it and it seems to be getting worse. The bruise wasn't there when I got cut nor for the 3-4 days prior to the fast.
The cut was/is healing up fine, and it doesn't hurt at all, but the bruise is concerning. 2 days ago it was barely visible. Yesterday it was just to one side of it. Now, as you can see, it's all around it. Should I stop my fast? Assuming it's because I'm either not getting the proper nutrients I need (iron? b12?) or because of dramatic weight lose which I've read causes bruises. Also, can water fasting possibly cause anemia? Below is the picture. Thanks for any input. It is greatly appreciated.
