Should I Meet Doctor For Patch Of Spotted Bruises On Thighs?
Two days ago I noticed a patch of spotted bruises on my 8 1/2 year old daughter's upper thigh. She did not fall or hurt herself. This morning she has woke up with another patch on her inner thigh on the opposite leg. I am not sure if I should take her to see her doctor.

Hi...by what you quote I feel that your kid might be having a bleeding disorder. She definitely needs evaluation for the same. There are many reasons for this... From congenital to aquired. It needs a thorough medical history and certain blood tests ordered after relevant history by a pediatrician. I suggest you consult your pediatrician as soon as possible.
