What Causes Cold, Cough, Sore Tailbone And Heel, Thigh And Arm Bruising?

Your symptoms could be related to a rheumatological disorder. For this reason, I recommend consulting with your attending physician for a physical exam and some tests: - Complete blood count, PCR, ESR - Blood electrolytes - RF plasma levels - ANA, ANCA titer - Vitamin D and vitamin B12 plasma levels for possible deficiency
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
