What Are Recurring Bruises Turning Into Discoloration On Skin Suggestive Of?

Hi. I am a 26 year old female with epilepsy. I seem to bruise fairly easily, but the major factor is they NEVER go away. They hurt and then heal, but never fade from being purple. This mostly occurs on my legs (I now have collected bruises everywhere since they stay) and occasionally on my arms. Why?

HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, such symptoms forming bruise could be due to blood disorder and for that better to get done the platelet count if it is normal one then it could be allergic condition as such you are epileptic patient and must be on some medication for that so better to ruled out the possibility of sensitivity of that drug I would advise you to discuss this with doctor such case highly demand the clinical examination hope this information helps.
