See a pediatrician!: Examination and blood tests will help determine a diagnosis, as well as establish that you are not allowing an environment where abuse of your child can occur. Please schedule an appointment soon.

Get a platelet count: You child should have a platelet count to see what his or her level is. Itp causes low platelets and bruising and bleeding. Call your pediatrician and have things checked right away. Child abuse must also be considered if you have left your child off at a day care for example.
