10 Causes of Purpura
Cause #5: Inflamed Blood Vessels
There are a number of conditions that can cause inflammation of the blood vessels. Something as simple as having an unhealthy diet can contribute to inflamed blood vessels. If your blood vessels are larger than normal, such as is the case when they’re inflamed, they are more sensitive and easier to rupture.
This means that you’re much more likely to experience serious bruising and other symptoms of purpura if your blood vessels are inflamed.
