My question is about her thin skin and her tendency to bleed easily. She has dark spots which she calls bruises but actually appear to be blood pooled under the skin making dark red or purplish blotches. They appear on her lower arms and she doesn't get rid of one before another one appears.
Introduction. Most lumps and swellings under the skin are harmless and can be left alone. However, see your GP if you develop a new lump or swelling so that the cause can be identified. A painful lump or swelling that appears suddenly over a day or two may be caused by an injury or infection. It's likely to be an infection if the skin around the lump is red and warm. Your GP can advise you about how to care for this.
