Is It Normal To Get Several Small Bruises Up And Down My Inner Thighs?
Hi. Over the last month, I keep gettin several small bruises up and down my inner thigh. I go to bed and wake up with dots of bruises, I get more throughout the day etc. without bumping into anything etc. I've always bruised easy, but this is very different. Is this normal?

Hi,
You seem to have ecchymoses off and on. I think this is not normal. That may be some purpuric dermatoses. You consult dermatologist and have investigations to find out the cause and to come to some diagnosis. He might give treatment for the cause and may give vitamin K, vitamin C and may advise to apply thrombophob oint on the purpuric patches. You avoid stress and worries. Just follow your doctor. You may be alright. I hope you got my answer.
Thanks.
