A member asked:
Why do people with renal failure bruise easily?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Renal failure: Often when people have abnormal kidney function, the toxins that the kidneys usually remove can build up. Sometimes these toxins can affect platelets and prevent them from sticking together which results in more bleeding and bruising.
