? "coagulopathy": Yes, you need to see MD. I don't know if you have any other symptoms? you might have an impaired coagulation. This means your blood doesn't form a clot to stop bleeding after spontaneous vessel injury or after minor truma. This need to be confirmed by blood test and I advise you to see MD. I hope this helped.

Need 2 see a Doctor!: You need to see your PCP to determine why you are bruising so easily. You could be low in Vitamin K, but you could also be higher in some supplements that can increase bleeding time, or other OTC meds, or have other medical conditions that need to be checked out! That amount of spontaneous bruising is not normal. Have peace of mind by visiting your doctor!
