Do You Bruise Easily? Check out the Causes Here
..................................................................................................... Bruises, or contusions, appear as a result of a damaged capillary seeping out blood. During the healing process, your body clears red blood cells from the bruised area turning it from black-and-blue to yellow, green or brown until it fades. Sometimes it might be unclear to us when and why did we get a certain bruise. Other than accidently hitting yourself and failing to remember here are some reasons why: Diabetes : Skin discoloration is common among diabetic patients. In areas where skin often rubs against itself, it may develop dark circles that can be easily mistaken for bruises. Sun Exposure : Being overly exposed to sunlight rays causes your skin to burn and lose its elasticity which makes it easily bruised. Extreme Exercising : Going too hard while exercising could strain your muscles to the point of injury. Bruises may develop as a result of ruptured vessels.
