A member asked:

My recent blood work shows that my platelet count is 109,000 and my mpv is 13.6. i have unexplained significant bruising on my legs. any cause for concern? im waking up with a new large, purple bruise every day?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

It would be prudent to see a primary care provider for an initial assessment and to ascertain if you need to consult a hematologist. The low platelet count itself is not that concerning but low count and bruising warrant evaluation. Wish you good health!
