Every time I bump my arm from the wrist to elbow I get blushing of the skin. It does not hurt and it takes at ,Least a week or. Ten days before my skin returns back to normal. I do take a blood pressure pill called enalapril_hctz 5-12.5 one a day. Is there any thing I can take or do to fix the problem.? Thanks.

If you are young person easy bruising needs to be investigated. Platelet count, Bleeding time and clotting time needs to be done.However if you are an elderly person than it does not warrant investigation as senile echymosis is age related. Oral Vitamin C tablets can abe started to increase the integrity of the vessel wall.Topical Vitamin E preparations can also be used. Consult your dermatologist regarding the above mentioned therapy.
