Bleed real easy

Whenever I just nick myself, I bleed real easy. I do not take blood thinner or aspirins.

you may have low platelettes (sp), you could go to your doctor and ask for a CBC (complete blood count) and your platelette level will be checked...my mom has low platelettes and she is fine. the only time it causes a problem is if she needs to have surgery, they have to give her drugs to bring her platelette level up...HTH

You may also have a bleeding disorder, called hemopheliac. Get the CBC checked first, then go from there, there are other tests to check for bleeding disorders. You can also get a PT/Inr(protime) and PTT(partial thromboblastin) and a bleeding time checked too. A hematologist (dr. specializing in bleeding disorders) would probably be more helpful. God bless and let us know!
