What Could It Be If Having Severe Headaches, Lightheadedness And Sudden Appearance Of Bruises On Legs?

Hi there. For the past few days I have severe headaches and yesterday I was very light headed also. My legs are covered in bruises and I haven't knocked them of anything. They have just appeared. They appear like bruises that have been there for a while. Like yellow bruises

Hi, I have read your question and understand your concerns.

Answer: There could be many reasons behind your signs and symptoms. Possibly, a viral or a bacterial infection is giving these issues or a blood disorder maybe responsible. Or it could be a autoimmune condition.

If you were to see you, I would take a detailed history from you, run blood and urine tests and if required brain imaging, and then treat you accordingly.

So, I would advise that you go to a doctor who will clinically assess you and manage you accordingly.

Hope it was helpful, and please do not hesitate to ask in the case of any confusion.
