What Causes Bruising All Over The Body Along With Vomiting And Diarrhea?
I have a friend with these symptoms. they happened suddenly about 14 hours ago: fever, bruising all over her body, vomiting water and diarrhea with water coming out. The bruising worries me. otherwise i would ve guessed food poisoning or sickle cell anemia.

Hello,
i can understand your concern. based on the symptoms it appears to be a viral infection, most probably dengue. bruising is due to the reduce platelet count usually seen in dengue.
i would advise you to immediately admit your friend in a hospital. a complete blood picture, dengue serology, ns1 antigen for dengue are required. he would be required to be kept under observation for a few days.
Hope i have answered your query. Have a nice day
