My hubby can get slammed, poked, pounded and bashed...and never shows anything five minutes later. Me? I bump into the corner of the kitchen counter or the dog (we have big dogs) jumps on my leg and BINGO...a big black and blue bruise.
No, I am not anemic, my clotting studies are all normal, and I am not deficient in Vitamin K or iron...I just "bruise easy". I have had a superb hematologist, I happen to know well, even confirm there is nothing wrong inside. In fact, I have a black belt in Karate, so you can imagine, I have bruised my whole life..and competing in that sport, well, I had my share of purple spots.
How about you? Do you bruise easy?
