Bleeding into the skin. Bleeding into the skin can occur from broken blood vessels that form tiny red dots (called petechiae). Blood also can collect under the tissue in larger flat areas (called purpura), or in a very large bruised area (called an ecchymosis).
Quick Answer. Broken blood vessels are most often caused by minor trauma, such as bruises and bumps, according to Nutra Legacy. However, Nutra Legacy also notes that broken vessels can occur as a result of the natural aging process. Certain illnesses and medications can also cause bleeding into the skin, according to Healthline.
