Basically I have bruises on my body all the time. This morning I woke up with a bruise on my shoulder and I don't know where it came from. This has happened multiple times. Sometimes I'll get a bruise after I hit my arm or leg on something not really hard. People look concerned and ask me "how did you get that bruise?" as if they suspect me of being abused or something. And that sucks because my man is a sweetheart he'd never do that. I try to eat more iron chalked foods but it hasn't seemed to do anything. People have suggested that I might be aenemic and it's probably true. But how common is this, is it normal?

    My friend does that kind of stuff all the time she's SUPER accident prone and she's very delicate a little slap on the arm leaves her red for a few minutes

    It could be a lack of vitamin c.

    Yeah it's normal I get bruises very easily, I always have at least 3 on my legs. I went to the doctor and there is nothing wrong with me but just bruise easily! You might want to check with the doctor just incase there is anything wrong.

    I always have unexplained bruises on my body. Who knows where the heck they come from. I was diagnosed as anemic as a child and I still go through bouts when I get very sick and extremely tired because of a lack of iron in my body. Though bruising easily is not always a sign of anemia. You need to talk to your doctor, there could be many other issues at play.
