Dermatologist 's  Response
Hi Jessica, you are right in that eczema and bruising are two separate entitites; eczema don't lead to bruising and vice-versa.
Bruising if appearing spontaneously and at young age, needs to be evaluated with certain investigations like platelet count, bleeding time, clotting time etc. Eczemas usually follows a relapsing course and post-treatment, relapses can be prevented by general measures.
I would adv you to visit a dermatologist for evaluation and management of both conditions.
Thanks
Take care
