Hi Liarose

I do get bruising and cant work out if I bumped into anything or how it got there. You need to get your bloods checked and speak to your consultant to be on the safe side. Good luck

Hi I have PV and notice when I am needing my pinta taken off, my bruises linger for ages - months in fact! I also find bruises and think how did I do that?
