Hi I am a male 69 years of age ande for about two years now I find that I just have to slightly bump my arms and I bleed like crazy and also under my skin as well as also bruise. I take a lot of vitamins, not vit e , does fish oil flaxseed oil thin the blood. It is so embarrassing the way my skin peels so very easy. Can you offer me anything ?

Hi,
From history it seems that you might be having some skin problem like eczematous dermatitis.
Due to age skin becomes slack,thin and improper circulation you might be having this problem.
You can take multivitamine and vitamin E.
Consult dermatologist and get examined.
Meanwhile apply triple action cream and Vaseline locally.
Take plenty of water.
Ok and take care.
I find this answer helpful
