What Causes Dark Bruise On Thigh And Right Arm?
Hi, in the last week I ve noticed sore biggish black bruises appear all over my body, first on my left thigh, then the same shaped one on right thigh then on my right arm, and several popping up on the right arm. I have been looking after my nephews for a couple of weeks but it s a little alarming.Thank you.

Hi.
Rashes like your will require reporting and medical attention. You will have to undergo a few blood tests as these purpuric rashes can be caused due to various thrombocytopenic or non-thrombocytopenic conditions like systemic lupus erythemtosus, Ehler's Danlos syndrome, side effect of medications, and so on.
Please report to your doctor for further evaluation.
Best wishes.
