I have heaps of bruises all over my legs, some are tiny dotted all together like fingerprints and a few big one, (fist size) Im currently being treated for a Kidney infection. Ive had bloods taken and just a bit worried it cld be something serious! This morning I was sick at work and had to come home. What do u think? Am I overreacting?
Hello, As you are treated for kidney infection, and have bruises all over your legs etc. Which may be due to changes in blood picture (Most probably low platelet counts), low platelet count always present with subcutaneous bleeding in form of bruises and other internal bleeding such as gum bleeding, hematuria etc. so u may be conscious to treat the low blood cell counts and replacement of platelets immediately and stop all medicines which are creating bone marrow depression and further take the treatment for your kidney infection after monitoring your blood picture in the future. Hope you have answer for your query and good luck, take care.
