Hi,
Easy bruising sometimes indicate a serious underlying disease such as blood clotting disorder or some underlying blood disease. It may also be due to scurvy (Deficiency of vitamin C) or deficiency of vitamin K ,causing a clotting defect. Also use of some medicines like Aspirin, Prednisone or Prednisolone weaken the skin and blood vessels in the skin.
A person with easy bruising should consult a doctor, if he is having it without any known reason, loss of a function of a joint as well as an increase in limb or muscle pain. As you are also having pain in joints, you are advised to consult your doctor for this. Also, you are tired easily and get non-healing & easily infected cuts, you should get your sugar levels checked to rule out Diabetes.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
