Hi, I m a 22 year old female and for the past few weeks I ve noticed that my legs, arms and stomach have become increasingly itchy to the point where I wake up to large bruising covering my thighs, arms and shins. The itching is unbearable I can t sleep and I am so embarrassed of this. I m uncomfortable most of the time and the bruises are so painful. Please help... Thanks, Tia.
Hello, Thanks for the query. you might be having a low platelet count and hence you are developing these bruises. Get your platelet levels, bleeding and clotting time checked. Sometimes spontaneous bruising might be associated with dangerous systemic conditions. I suggest you to get a thorough check up done. Usually it takes around 2 weeks for the bruise to heal, you can use oint thrombophobe to get a faster relief. A photograph would have helped me better. Please meet a dermatologist for exact diagnosis. Let me know if you have any other doubt. you can ask a direct question to me on this forum, following the below link. http://www.healthcaremagic.com/doctors/dr-rahul-kumar/64818 Wishing you a good health.
