What Causes Recurring Bruise On Thighs Post Child Delivery?

Hi,I have birth 9 weeks ago and since then I ve been getting bruises on my thighs. They are all close to each other, seem to fade and then come back again. I counted today and on my right thigh I have 18 bruises. I m getting concerned about this and wondered if you could help with what it may be.

Welcome to HCM.

recurrent bruising like this could be from the low platelets. there is condition called pre eclamsia in pregnancy. please check your blood pressure. you should see your gynecologist or general doctor immediately if your BP is high.

other symptoms to watch for are headaches and vision changes.
