If she has not hurt herself, she may have a bleeding diathesis and it would be prudent to see a pediatrician. A consultation with a hematologist may be needed.

Please have her see her pediatrician to start with who can examine her and decide if this is a problem. She will likely need some bloodwork to definitely figure out the issue. Then she may need to see a specialist (hematologist) in blood disorders depending on what the pediatrician finds.

Many kids enjoy roughhousing and can seem to always have bruises here and there, but if you feel that your child is having an excessive amount of bruising, then it would be wise to seek an appointment with your pediatrician for your child to be evaluated for a possible bleeding disorder. You should also consider whether your child could be a victim of bullying or abuse. Good luck.

I have had left knee pain off and on for years and several years back a procedure was performed where shaving of some bone spurs was done. My knee pain has come and gone since. However, about 1 year ago, I injured it by lifting my leg and with some force met the corner of a wall with the top of my knee. X-rays showed no break. Doctor prescribed PT, which did not help. Pain has continued/worsened. There is now bruising (black and blue) on the inside of my knee. Is this worrisome? Knee pain?
