My 12 year old daughter has mild autism and epilepsy. She has been complaining of abdominal discomfort and headaches. This evening I noticed she has bruising along her spine starting at the base and goes about six inches up is this something I should be concerned about?
Thank you for following up. Bruising is usually result of hit due her epilepsy attack or other causes. She has lots of bruising that's why I suggest her blood vessels are weak and easy injured. In addition, we can check blood test and plat elates with clotting for excluding of some hematological diseases. For speedy disappearing of bruising you can apply small amounts heparin ointment, for example- tomophobe, if she complains a pain then apply diclofenac gel for relief the best Be healthy! Chat Doctor.
