What Causes Small Bruises Appear On The Upper Thigh?
A group of small bruises appeared on my upper thigh early this past week. They don t hurt and aren t dark in color. I haven t bumped my leg and the fact that they all came at thw same time, as well as the appearance of them has me concerned. I have a picture.....what could this be?

Unexplained bruising could signal a low platelet count or a coagulation fact problem from liver disease so you need to see a doctor for blood tests to evaluate this
