What Causes Random Bruising On The Hips Of A Child?
My 3 year old son keeps getting bruises on his hips for no reason. They are sometimes as large as my hand. They never are very dark just a tinge of color to the skin. He is a juvinial diebetic, but we are keeping his sugars regulated to the best of our ability. Do you have any sugestions what this could be?

Hi,
You need to do prothrombin time, bleeding and clotting time, as he may be suffering from liver malfunction.
Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
