A member asked:
Noticed a few very small yellow bruises, doctor did inr test (no medications) and my level was 1.2 (lab ranges 0.8-1.2 as normal) but reading up it says a healthy person should be at 1 im only in my mid 20s should i be concerned? is this slow?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Work up should continue for the skin changes/bruises, the INR level is a ratio, likely normal, if repeated and by no means explaining the skin changes you are experiencing. Your primary care doc remains your best resource at this point.
