A member asked:
Discovered two unexplained bruises, one on each leg on the opposite sides of each other. right leg looks better, left leg looks worse. possibilities?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Leg's are in: the line of a lot of local trauma. While easy bruising can mean either low platelets or low clotting factors, I've never seen that unless the person already had a diagnosis to support it (alcoholism, liver disease) and the bruises looked obviously abnormal (bloody).
