What is wrong with me? My gp is useless. Amongst other things, when I bang my arm or something, it's bruising and hurting about 100x worse than it ordinarily would. I'm supposed to go skiing soon & this is worrying me. Thanks

im an anesthesiologist and about as qualified to answer your query as your useless GP, i suggest seeing a Hematologist, a doctor who specializes in blood diseases... he/she should be able to tell you whats wrong and explain to you the treatment options...in the meantime it would be prudent to skip the ski trip, you didnt mention if your gp got bleeding parameters ( clot time , protime, bleed time) which would determine how fast ( or slow) your blood would clot in case of injury... i hope i was able to be of some help...thanks

We need more info to start. Did they do labs and if so what are the results? How old are you? What is your weight? What are previous medical problems? Do you have a history of cancer or diabetes? Have you felt anything else?
With just the info that you told me and assuming that you a healthy otherwise person, I would bring up platelet-aggregating factor as it relates to hyperalgesia to your provider and see what he says.
