Hello,
Anemia and deficiency of vitamins C, K, B12, or folic acid are the common causes of easy bruisability. Try taking iron tablets and multivitamins for some days and see if the symptoms improve. If the symptoms do not improve, get yourself evaluated by a physician and look out for SLE, bone marrow disorders, liver diseases or leukemias.
I hope it helps. Take care and regards.
Hi.
Thanks for the reply. Sorry, I meant to say I have more white blood cells than red. I'll ask my dr. for an anemic blood test.
Hi Mariah,
First, I would say rest.
Then, I would say that everyone has white blood cells just so you know (unless you meant to say lowered/elevated?).
Next, yes, make an appointment. Ask to be checked for anemia and diabetes.
I hope you get it figured out soon.
