Bruising (ecchymosis) happens when small blood vessels (capillaries) under the skin break. This causes bleeding within skin tissues. You will also see discolorations from the bleeding. Most of us get bruises from bumping into something from time to time. Bruising sometimes increases with age.
Warnings. 1  If you notice that you suddenly begin to bruise easily, that your bruises are large and painful, and that you can't explain the origin of the bruises, talk to your doctor.
