Does Diabetes Causes Bruises On The Right Arm?
I was diagnosed with type 2 diabetes earlier this year. My doctor wasn t happy that my A1C number only moved down .2 and started me on medication to lower my A1C more quickly. However when I finished work on Saturday, my upper right bicept was hurting and felt hot. Now I have a long bruise from the under side of my upper right arm to going to the top side of my lower right arm. Is this related to my diabetes or the medication to lower my A1C?
