Any suggestions to help with blood bruising on arms?

I feel what you’re going through! I get back injections every month for my back. Steroids! I’ve asked a couple doctors if my bruises could be from the injections and was told probably not because the injections are isolated to my back.
I don’t believe that! I think the injections have a lot to do with my bruising. The bruises started not long after I started the injections. I’m so tired of being in pain I’m getting a MRI to see if anything can be done to help my back pain. I started out saying the last thing I would do is surgery. But after a few years of progressively worsening pain, I’m ready to do anything if it will help. I can’t handle living like this. My fibromyalgia pain is bad enough! But my back pain has taken over my life. I’m supposed to be packing to move, but not much is getting done! My arms get bad with multiple brushes I have no idea where they came from, and I don’t like people staring at my arms either!

Hi
I am so sorry that you are in such severe pain. What is causing your back pain. I just had some more compression fractures happen in April and I am getting laser treatments at my chiropractor with muscle release therapy and it's really helped I can't believe the difference. I hope you get some relief soon
