Can Stopping Blood Thinners Cause Bruises On Inner Thigh And Painful Body?

A family member is experiencing unexplained bruising on inner thighs, a swelling under arm, severe body pain that moves through body along with severe fatigue. She has recently finished chemo ( had a portion of her lung removed) . Was treated for a blood clot in neck after surgery. These symptoms seem to have started three days after stopping blood thinners.

HI
Well come to HCM
In malignant disease with the history of surgery and chemotherapy such symptoms are very likely but this could be reversible most of the time and does not need any specific treatment neither this would cause any harm, still it is advisable to have dermatological opinion to rule out some fungal infection, hope this information helps, have a nice day.
