What to know about bruising easily
Minor bruises often heal in a few days. Some people bruise more easily than others, and the bruising can take longer to heal. Causes include age, medications, and vasculitis.
A fall, blow, or other impact that exerts sudden high pressure on the skin can cause a bruise. Very forceful blows can damage bones, causing deep bleeding and bruises that take several weeks to heal.
Some people bruise more easily than others. They may notice bruises but not know why they occurred. They may also develop large bruises after minor injuries or have bruises that take many weeks to heal.
Factors that increase the risk include:
- older age
- having a condition that affects blood clotting
- using medications such as blood thinners
This article explains why some people may bruise more easily than others.
