What Causes Bruising On The Thighs?
I have large unexplained bruises surrounded by tinier fingertip size bruises that start appearing on my thighs. I have also been extremely itchy in the same areas as the bruising. My appetite is not what it usually is and I have lost weight recently as well as being more tired than usual. What could be causing this?
