I have always bruised easily. So has my mom. I can bump my arm on something lightly and the next day I have a bruise. If I hit my arm or leg hard then I have a huge purple bruise within minutes. Do you bruise easily or are you one on the lucky ones?

Yeah I am just of those unlucky ones that bruise easily and I don't have an iron deficiency or anything. I remember I had at least three bruises on me and didn't know how I got one of them on my arm and the other two, I felt down the stairs on my bum and it was one on each cheek black and blue. Let's just say it was a lot of fun trying to sit on my behind or take a shower.
I found out from my doctor when I kept getting bruises last summer and she told me my blood vessels float right under my skin. So it doesn't take much for them to break. I had one time smack my arm so hard on something that it took two to three weeks for the bruise to heal.

Dam that seems to be a problem O_o. I do alot of er heavy work and i dont bruise that easily, only when i scratch against something sharp and it leaves a small scar or something similar, but a hit or a bump; i am all good.
Anyways, i suppose you can't do very aggresive sports because that would be kind of dangerous =d
