Constant Bruising Over Veins - Need Advice

I keep getting bruises and it seems like it’s over my veins. Who should I see about this? Primary care doctor?! It’s really weird and the bruises are sore to touch.

Can you help? Connect today

I always start with my primary for things like this. Then she decided after running her own tests to send me to a blood specialist. Mine, they think stems from a combo of iron and B12 deficiency anemia.

I would see your primary and request blood work. You may be low in something and need a supplement.

Same my problem for several years, I made a lot of analysis but nothing appeared in it. Finally I decided to take iron and B12 and guess what it’s starting to disappear. However when I stopped my vitamins and supplies it appears again. Note that in my results in medical check no problem appears at all. Even my doctor said I don’t need vitamins and supplies. I hope this could help you.
