littlestranger 0 #2 May 7, 2006 cut back on aspirin and anything that contains ginseng. both thin the blood and make you more prone to bruising. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

freefalle 0 #4 May 7, 2006 If brusing is a constant problem for you, you need to see you doctor, You may have thrombocytopenia, (a plattlett disorder) or you may suffer from amemia Its hard to tell without lab test. If you aren't taking one already consider taking an iron supplement, which is usually a good idea for females anyway. Additionally, as previously stated avoid any Asprin or products containing asprin products. See your doctor. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
