The bruises that appeared on my body for no apparent reason, could it be that they were pinched by a ghost? I never expected that…

Who doesn't want to have clear skin?

But there is always a small group of people whose bodies are always covered with purple "spots".

Even if there are no bumps or bruises, bruises still appear on the skin inexplicably.

The key point is that it didn't hurt. I wasn't touched and there was no fight.

Was it really a "ghost" that pinched him? What exactly happened? Let me explain it to you today!

In fact, bruises are the rupture of tiny blood vessels in the human body.

When a bruise is first formed, it is bright red, mainly due to hemoglobin in the blood, which is a product of porphyrin compounds and iron. As time goes by, the red blood cells are engulfed by giant cells, and the hemoglobin in them is also broken down, and the bruise will now be dark purple.

But if bruises appear for no apparent reason, be careful. There may be several reasons:

First, there is something wrong with your blood vessels.

As we age, our blood vessels become more fragile. They can easily break and cause bruises with the slightest touch.

Second, there are too many "impurities" in your blood.

If there are too many "impurities" in the blood, its viscosity will increase, which will directly lead to slow blood flow and cause blockage, which will easily cause bruises.

Third, your blood coagulation function has deteriorated.

Platelets are the body's coagulation factor, which can repair blood vessel damage. If the number of platelets is small and the activity is not strong, once the blood vessel ruptures, the coagulation function will deteriorate and bruises will easily form.

In addition to congenital causes, some diseases can also cause bruises, such as platelet abnormalities, kidney disease, hemophilia, purpura, leukemia, etc.

Therefore, if bruises appear on your skin frequently and for no apparent reason, do not take it lightly and go to the hospital for treatment promptly.
