[|Human|] Hi, Ive recently started getting these red bruises around my chest area. Ive always bruised easily but they usually turn blue or purple like a regular bruise. However both on my shoulders (from the bra strap I assume) I have red line-formed bruises with small red dots in them and as well on my left breast I have three lines that used to be red but now seem to have faded to yellow, though the red spots remain. Should I worry or consult a doctor regarding this or is it nothing?
[|AI|]  Hello, Thanks for the query. Following can be the possibilities for the bruise. 1. Low platelet, which is the commonest cause.2. A defect in capillaries. 3. Vasculitis (inflammation of vessels)However the last condition is usually associated with pain.  Kindly get the following tests done. 1. Platelet levels 2. Bleeding time and clotting time. The above are simple tests which may help in diagnosing his condition. Slight yellowish discoloration is normal, but if it persists you must meet a dermatologist. Let me know if you have any other doubt. Thank you
