Suggest Treatment For Blood Blisters On Forearms
Question: I have blood blisters on my forearms. I thought they were insect bites but I have eliminated that cause. What causes these blisters and what can be done?
Brief Answer:
Please, upload an image for review!
Detailed Answer:
Hi and thank you so much for this query. I am so sorry to hear about these blood blisters that you have reported.
As we grow older, the skin becomes thinner and bleeding with minimal trauma is common. This is more likely to happen if you are taking blood thinners for any reasons. I will suggest that you report your list of medications and also report an image of these blister for review and a personalized response to me. This way, I can provide a thorough, personalized and helpful response to you.

I hope to hear from you and would respond promptly. Until then, I wish you well.
