Do Vitamin Supplements Cause Severe Bruising In The Body?
Recently I have been experiencing severe bruising after very minimal bumps and a nurse s failed attempts to draw blood caused extensive bruising. I take 81mg aspirin, but have done that for 2 years and never bruised like this. I take cardizem for high bp and several supplements. vit D, multivitamin, magnesium, picinolate, green tea cargeenic, fish oil. Could supplements be the cause?

Hello,
In my opinion, the symptoms seem to be related to the use of Aspirin. I recommend you to do the INR blood level. I also recommend doing coagulation and clotting time.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
