Symptom #4: Easy Bruising

If we were to experience a hard-enough impact then there is a good chance that we would bruise. This is because blood vessels can be broken internally, causing blood to spill out within the body. What we see as a bruise is the blood collecting just beneath the surface of the skin.

Bleeding is usually stopped quite quickly, though, as the blood coagulates to help plug up holes. This is achieved largely with the help of certain hormones as well as other compounds. An adrenal tumor can impact the production of the required hormones. This means that we can bleed easier and for longer.
