They constantly ask. It will be about bruises that appeared for no reason, or from such a minor injury, from which there have never been bruises before.
In people with pale thin skin, overweight and in women, bruises, in principle, appear more easily, and it is not always clear why.
If the bruises are not with you, but with someone else, and even if this someone is a woman, an elderly person or a child, then you need to figure out if someone is beating this person. Otherwise, it turns out that the bruises did not appear by themselves.
Here it should be noted right away that children under three years old stuff themselves with bruises on their knees, on the front surface of the legs, on the forehead, because they walk uncertainly.
Weak older people often have bruises on their arms after being moved under the arms, transplanted, or taken somewhere. This is due to loose skin. And this does not mean that their arms were twisted.
Where are the bruises
If bruises appear on the arms below the elbows or on the legs below the knees, then these are usually harmless bruises. People don't really notice when they beat these places.
If bruises form on different parts of the body, then this is already strange. Maybe something is wrong with the blood coagulation system.
What bruises
If you find five or more bruises larger than 1 centimeter, then this can already be solemnly called easily appearing bruises.
What else
If, in addition to bruises on the skin, bleeding is added (from the nose, after shaving, from the gums, heavy periods), then this is more suspicious and you have to go to surrender to the doctor.
Petechiae
These are punctate hemorrhages. They indicate a problem with platelets, and this is always abnormal. They should be shown to the doctor immediately.
Purpura
We are with you such a thing has already been discussed. These spots in the skin are larger than petechiae. Also see a doctor.
Briefly speaking
Five it is not clear how the bruises that have appeared larger than 1 centimeter (especially if there is additional bleeding from the gums, nose or somewhere else), or if there are punctate hemorrhages, then go to the doctor. Everything else is rather not scary.
