What Causes Purple Colored Bruises In Legs?

Hi, I've been getting a lot of bruises on my legs lately (I'm clumsy) and I seem to be bruising easily. There is a small purple dot on one of the bruises on my leg. Also, there are 3 other location on my legs where I'm seeing this single round purple dot. One of them has been there for 2 months.

HI
Thank for asking to HCM
I really appreciate your concern looking to the history given here I could say this is hematological problem because this is a chronic symptom that you have in my opinion this need to be investigated for the blood disorder like platelet disease like purpura, the best way is first go for clinical examination, hope this information helps you have a nice day.
