I am bruising easily. I get bruises and I dont remember where I got them. The bruises do not hurt.
Brief Answer:
Regarding easy or spontaneous bruising
Detailed Answer:
Hello and welcome to ask a doctor service. I have gone through your query and reviewed the image.
Spontaneous bruising could be a sign of an underlying metabolic condition. I'd suggest a few basic blood tests like complete blood count including platelets. Bleeding and Clotting time along with Prothrombin Time (PT) and partial thromboplastin time (aPTT). These would hint whether a hematological or liver disorder could be the reason behind easy or spontaneous bruising.
Are you on any medication? How long since you have this issue? Is there a history of bleeding from gums? or in stools (black, tarry stools)?
Take care.
Hope to assist you further with your concern.
