Ok, I am very healthy. I eat really well and I work out everyday. I used to never get bruises... someone could hit me as hard and they could and you would never see a bruise. Lately I have been noticing bruises all over and I don't even know what happened. Does anyone know what would cause me to all the sudden start bruising so easy? Is it a lack of something in my body or my diet? I am talking like huge purple bruises and I wont even know what caused them which means it obviously wasn't something with a lot of impact.
Thanks guys!

You may be suffering from poor circulation, or lack of iron, this is unpreventable due to ageing, but if it is really worrying you I would advise you seek out a doctors advice.
P.s. Drinking alchol thins out your blood which can lead to poor circualtion, or better depending on your blood type, it only helps if you have 'sticky' blood.

Sudden Bruising
2016-10-06 02:52:19 · answer #2 · answered by ? 4 · 0⤊ 0⤋
The main cause of spontaneous bruising is diminished clotting ability. Bruises occur where blood is leaking from capillaries. There are many medications that can reduce clotting ability - the most common one is aspirin. Certain viruses also release toxins that interfere with clotting. Alcohol and pineapples or pineapple juice interfere with clotting.
If you have not been taking any medications or have not recently had a viral infection, then the next most common cause is a reduction in the number of platelets in your blood (thrombocytopenia). There are a number of things that can cause thrombocytopenia, some are serious, some only an annoyance. It would be a good idea to call the docs office to schedule a blood test and a visit with the doctor the next day or two when the results are available. If you have something serious, its best to catch it as soon as possible.

Hi.if you are bruising like this and you have not hit against anything and there is no pain at the site of the bruise to suggest a bump the it is a good idea to go to your G.P.it may be nothing serious but hemophilia is and that shows itself by bruising,bleeding like from a little scratch or cut that wont stop is another symptom so best get it checked out asap .

Sounds rough are you on any form of aspirin because it thins your blood out and can cause bruising easily.

Are you taking aspirin? For me, THAT will cause me to have purpura.........bruises for no reason, all over my legs, especially, but, all over me. Some people take aspirin, daily, for their heart...........so, if you are doing this, think about, read about purpura on the net.

You may not have enough iron in your body...go and see your doctor and have him check your iron levels to be sure that your not low.
