10 Signs of Liver Damage

Sign #9: Bruising Easily
When we are injured, our blood forms clots to plug up any gaps to stop the blood from leaking out. This is obviously very useful, essential, even, as we need our blood to survive. Certain illnesses and conditions, however, can prevent the blood from clotting to plug these gaps. One such illness is liver damage.
The liver helps in the production of proteins that help the blood to clot when it needs to. If the liver is not functioning properly, then the blood may be lacking these important proteins. This can lead to easy bruising because blood will escape from the blood vessels more so than usual.
