Hi
firstly i would suggest you to go for complete blood count CBC.
Platelets, also called thrombocytes are a component of blood whose function (along with the coagulation factors) is to stop bleeding by clumping and clotting blood vessel injuries. Thrombocytopenia is a condition where the number of platelet is significantly low, initially it can present as bruising.
Apart from that clotting time and bleeding time test should be done.
they are the preliminary test , if they comes out to be normal,genetic mapping,and clotting factores and vitamin k level will be checked.
I find this answer helpful
