What Causes Thinning Of Blood?

I have a friend that has MS and has to take shots. He took a shot and there was a lot of blood that followed after he took the needle out. I was thinking his blood was too thin. (I take warfarine and this is why I was concerned) He drinks a lot of Red Bulls drinks too.

Hi, dear.
I have gone through your question. I can understand your concern. You are taking warferrin. It is oral anticoagulant drug. It prevents clotting of blood. So it leads to bleeding. You shoul test your PT and INR.
Hope I have answered your question, if you have doubt then I will be happy to answer. Thanks for using health care magic. Wish you a very good health.
