What Causes Bruise On Thigh, Forearms And Finger?

I have been bruising very easily the past 4 weeks. I had about six small bruises on my forearms, 2 weeks later two bruises on my thigh (one as big as a baseball), and one week later a bruised finger that swelled and was super sore. I read that this may be side effect of one of my medications, Wellbutrin or Lamictal, I don t remember which one. Should I be worried and contact my doctor?
