elementx Posted July 18 Report Share Posted July 18 I bruise fairly easy as well... I think ( dont quote me ) it has something to do with circulation. I know I read something about bruising in people who are active and people who are not so active... Try WEBMD.COM you should be able to find something.

fierydesire Posted July 18 Report Share Posted July 18 D I bruise easily as well . . . does anyone in your family have anemia? It can be due to that, my mother has it and I think I also do . . . This is when your red blood cells are low in count. A way to get around anemia is to add more iron to your diet or eat more red meats . . . I should probably take my own advice ghossst: I don't think D has fair skin at all . . . it is prob due to low red blood cell count . . .

trancerxn112 Posted July 18 Report Share Posted July 18 Bruises are popped blood vessels, if you bruise easily it is because A. You have weak blood vessels, which is hereditary and unreversable. B. Because your circulation is bad and your blood take a long time to clot, which is also untreatible. So tell people to stop poking you, or is that to much to ask in your profession?

ou812 Posted July 18 Report Share Posted July 18 True sometimes people may be more prone to bruising that others but there are things you can do. One thing that I've read about, and done, and seems to work quite well is to up your vit. C intake. I usually take between 1-2 grams of vit. C a day.Vitamin C is very helpful for both wound healing and to prevent bruising, not to mention is a good anti-oxidant and keeps you immune system up. I remember once I was doing seated military presses, I was doing a heavy set and pressed the weight up fast and kind of lost my balance and felt myself tipping back, so I kicked my leg forward to counter balance my bodyweight, in the process I smashed my shin against the bar in front of me, HARD, hurt like a bitch, but, barely swelled at all and didn't bruise at all. Cool. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
