What Could Recurring Cluster Of Bruises On Arm Mean?
Hello I have a small cluster of bruises on my arm that are really small but keep coming back. On my other arm I have small bruises about the size of a pencil tip but not in a cluster, at first I had a couple but now I have 5, what could be causing this? Shoul I see a doctor?
