[|Human|] My 11 year old son has had a section on his mid-lower spine that has appeared to be a fading bruise for over two months now. Yesterday he did a few sit ups on the lawn and when he stood up his spine was bruised, deep purple, from shoulder blades to just above the tail bone. He also gets random, heavy nose bleeds and bruises easily on his shins. He had a general blood work up about 1 1/2 years ago and all came back normal except his ferratin was at the very bottom of the normal range. Should I be concerned that something serious is manifesting?
[|AI|]  Hi, Welcome to this forum. From history noted, It seems to be some problem of concern. Child might need further specific evaluations such as clotting time, bleeding time, and factor analysis.
