Needs testing: This implies a disorder of the normal blood factors that control clotting. Some are simple & transient while others are a threat to your life. Go in for testing now.

Agree with Dr. F: It is not feasible to provide a meaningful opinion without additional history, physical examination and may be some tests. There may be an underlying disorder that warrants immediate attention. It would be prudent to see your doctor. Wish you good health!
