Hello,

Your symptoms seem to be related to a microtrauma.

I suggest doing some examinations to exclude the possibility of blood issue.

I suggest doing a blood test, platelets level, coagulation time and hemorrhage time.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Dorina Gurabardhi, General & Family Physician
