What Causes Easy Bruising Of Skin Along With Pain In Leg?

Hi, I am worried about my father. His skin is bruising very easily, wakes up in sweats, severe leg pain (proximal femur which he states sometimes feels really hot to the touch), complains of overall body aches to the touch, and a lot of weight loss. He doesn t like going to the doctor and I would like to get information on possible causes to plead my case to him on the importance of seeking medical advice.

Hello,
I have studied your case and I think that he might be having either vitamin B 12 deficiency and blood sugar problem. So he needs to see a doctor as soon as possible. If there is any low calcium or high blood sugar than he needs to get treated for it. He should not delay his treatment and take help of physcian.
He would suggest you take calcium and vitamin D-3 daily. He may also advised you to take rest, avoid alcohol and smoking.
