Itch on thigh badly bruised after mild to moderate scratching. do not have anemia. bruising was within a few hours and bright red.

Bruise red?: A bruise is usually not red - more blue, grey. It could be a local allergic or inflammatory reaction to the scratching. It is your platelets that would have more to do with bruising than red blood cells. Just keep an eye on it.
