Abstract
What you need to know
In those without a personal or family history, easy bruising is unlikely to be a bleeding disorder.
History and clinical examination and widely available laboratory tests are often sufficient to reach a diagnosis, or to reassure.
Consider nutritional deficiencies, age related bruising, purpura simplex, drugs, and physical abuse in patients with a first episode of bruising.
