A member asked:

Not often but sometimes i wake up with random bruising and have no trauma or injury to the part of my body that has been bruised.. blood test??

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Ideas: History and physical exam. Taking meds? Platelet count as part of the CBC, pro time, partial thromboplastin time. Basic chemistries. Tourniquet test and bleeding time are not obsolete. Antinuclear antibody screen. If any suspicion of vasculitis, more labs.
