Can I Continue Coumadin For Bruises On Arms And Legs After Being On Mechanical Aortic Valve?
Hello, Thanks for the query. You can continue with coumadin but get your clotting factor levels checked. coumadin affects the clotting mechanism. you can use oint thrombophobe to get a faster relief. Please meet a dermatologist for exact diagnosis.
