What Causes Pain And Bruises On Leg?

My daughter has been complaining that her legs hurt (and sometimes her head or stomach but consistently her legs to the point of not walking right), I blew it off as growing pains but tonight I looked at her legs and they are covered in bruises, some just from where she scratched an itch. She also has little red bumps or welts on her legs. Since it s cold out and she s been wearing pants and is old enough to shower herself I m not sure how long this has been going on.

I would recommend you to show it to skin specialist. It can be due to allergy reaction. If these bruises are painful than you should give her Brufen. if you can send image of the lesion than we can better inform.
