Hello,
You need to get your coagulation profile done. the information which you have provided in your question gives me the clue of this only because, in obese people, coagulation abnormalities are very common.
A second thing which I can think of is your tumour. There is a derangement of coagulation profile in a tumour also. so you need to get it investigated.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
Dr Anuj Gupta, Spine Surgeon
