Easy bruising and bleeding. am i deficient on a vitamin?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Unlikely: There are many possible reasons for "easy bruising and bleeding". A significant deficiency of vit k could cause abnormal bleeding, but this is unlikely with a normal diet. If this seems like a serious problem, you should be evaluated by your physician to determine the cause.
