Why Do I Bruise So Easily?
Reviewed: Dr. Gromatzky
5. Bleeding Disorders
We will all bleed occasionally but it doesn’t usually happen frequently. It will usually take a significant blow or being cut with a sharp implement and, even when we do bleed, our blood will usually clot quickly to help prevent us from loosing too much blood.
This is not the case for everybody, however, because some people have bleeding disorders that prevent the blood from clotting. People with bleeding disorders will bruise easily and have to be more careful than other people to avoid injury, while they will also need specialized treatment. Even the smallest of cuts might result in significant blood loss.
