Unexplained bruises
For the past week I’ve noticed bruises popping up out of nowhere. It started with a couple on my outer thigh, then that couple turned into clusters of them. Then a few showed up on my inner arms. Is there any explanation for this besides hitting it, because I know I didn’t?

Hi
These are called petechiae. You need to consult a local practitioner since an examination is required to confirm the diagnosis.
