What Causes Unexplained Significant Bruising Near The Tailbone?
What could cause unexplained, significant bruising near the tailbone? I have a J-pouch (restorative proctocolectomy in 2004) and have recurrent episodes of pouchitis or cuffitis, but this bruising is baffling. There is no pain associated with it, and it extends down the crack.

Hello,
Thanks for your query.
Some of the causes of bruising for no reason include age, medication, or serious disease. Bruising for no reason may be a signal to consult a healthcare professional. Many of the causes of unexplained bruising can be identified by simple laboratory tests.
I do hope that you have found something helpful and I will be glad to answer any further query.
Take care
