Strange Bruise
I’m not a doctor, but when I was in college, one of my fellow lifeguards was showing me how easily she was bruising. Like, you could press your thumb into her arm and 10 minutes later she’d have this black and blue bruise that looked like someone had severely hit her.
I told her to get her butt over to the health center because that was not a normal thing to be experiencing. The truth behind her condition took us all aback. It turned out her red blood cell or platelet count was really low.
Like, it should have been in the five million range, and hers was in the one million range. She even had to be admitted overnight for a couple of days to have the issue taken care of. Sometimes, even things that seem as minor as this can be signs of a much larger problem. Story Credit: Reddit/desertsail912
