Bruising: Frequent and unexplained bruising can be a sign of something more serious, such as a blood clotting disorder or a blood disease, so contact your health care provider to discuss your symptoms.

See doctors: Easy bruising can be related to medication or to blood problems. An evaluation by a doctor is required to determine the cause. Low platelets or other hematologic problems can lead to easy bruising. A general practitioner can often determine the problem. If not, a hematologist might be recommended.
