For example, when you wake up in the morning or during your regular daily activities, you notice a bruise out of the blue that you have no recollection of getting. Also you don't have any medical condition that makes you more succeptible to them. But whether you're just naturally klutzy or whatever the case may be, you happen to get them at random while the next person rarely gets any. What causes that?

I get those quite often. I went to the doctor when they first started to get my blood checked. It came back perfectly normal and he told me I just clot strange. It's not anything to be concerned about - it's not a health issue - just makes me look like a little kid running around.

The mystery of bruising may also be affected by medications which interfere with blood clotting (and thus cause more bleeding into the skin or tissues). These drugs include many prescription arthritis medications called non-steroidal anti-inflammatories (e.g., ibuprofen/Advil, Nuprin and naproxen/Aleve) as well as over-the-counter medications, such as aspirin. Warfarin (Coumadin) is often prescribed by doctors specifically to prevent clotting in patients who have had blood clots in their legs or heart. Warfarin can cause particularly severe bruising, especially if the level of the medication becomes too high. Cortisone medications, such as prednisone, promote bruising by increasing the fragility of the tiny blood vessels in the skin. In addition, patients with inherited clotting problems (such as in hemophilia) or acquired clotting problems (such as in patients with liver diseases like cirrhosis), can develop extensive bruising or even life-threatening bleeding.
