Hi @megmaine, I'd like to add my welcome to @windyshores. You may also notice I moved your discussion and combined it with an existing discussion titled: Senile purpura bruises and treatment options, https://connect.mayoclinic.org/discussion/hiding-old-lady-bruises/.

I did this so you could read through other members' shared experiences and meet members like @windyshores, @dmcara, @liene, @alohamelanie @notmoff @bimshire and @ellerbracke.

@megmaine, you mentioned you were on your own, were any suggestions given to you when you met with your dermatologist?

Dermatologist, as well as primary care doctors both recommended discontinuing any blood thinning medications or supplements…ibuprofen…fish oil, etc. but concluded this was a result of aging, over-exposed skin and there was little to be done.
