Sunburn turned bruise

Question

Asked for Female, 26 Years

Hi there! I am on holiday in Thailand and I forgot to put suncream on my legs before an hour long drive on a bike. My right leg got it worse (my left leg has healed) but now my right leg is starting to bruise! I am concerned that this is not normal? Could you advise? I fly home tomorrow so I would be able to see a doctor at home on Friday if you think it would be best?
