Bruising: I suspect trivial trauma, probably from footwear, that's causing the bruising. Serious blood deficiencies would cause scattered or generalized bruising, bleeding from gums,etc. Taking aspirin,anti-inflammatory medications like Advil or Aleve or corticosteroid medication, vitamin C deficiency can also causing easy bruising. See MD as needed.

I have a bruise on my ankle that is black in color. When I first noticed it back in June, it was just slightly bigger than a pencil eraser. Now it is almost wrapped around my ankle and starting to cover the heel of my foot. What could cause this?
