unexplained bruises

I keep finding bruises on my body in particular on my legs and I can't work out or remember how I got them. They fade and then are replaced with new ones. They are not as a result of any physical injury as almost all the time no pain precedes the.ir appearance. They just turn. The exception was today as I just got a horrible bruise on my middle finger. I felt pain in the morning on that finger but I didn't do anything to cause it. Any ideas about what could be causing this. Sorry for typos and bad grammar.

Are you taking Aspirin or any type of blood thinner?

My mum gets bruised fingers, but I can't remember what it's called .
I would make an appointment to see your doctor.
This is possibly the most unhelpful I've ever been on a post Hmm.

You need bloods checked. Your platelets could be low. Any other kind if symptoms? Red pin prick rash? Could be ITP. But see your dr. Smile
