Suspected Bruises

Has any one woken up before with bruises on their legs\arms with no apparent reason or recent injury?
This condition has been happening to me ever since i was a child. I wake up and suddenly find red or blue bruises on my legs or arms. They don't have to hurt sometimes though. I consulted many doctors about this matter and still do, but you know the typical answer you get here; it's normal.

It got me to the point where i believed that demons beat me at night since the condition is magically unexplained 'don't ask why LOL'

So i googled it, and those seem to be the medical explanation for it:
  • effects of medications or supplements — aspirin, anticoagulants (blood thinners), corticosteroids, and dietary supplements, such as fish oil, ginkgo, ginger, and garlic.
  • a bleeding or clotting disorder.
  • nutritional deficiencies of vitamins B12, C, K, or folic acid.
  • inflammation of a blood vessel(s).
  • liver disease.
  • sepsis — a widespread presence of infection-causing organisms or their toxins in the blood or tissues.
  • chronic inflammatory diseases, e.g., lupus.
  • certain cancers, including Hodgkin's disease, leukemia, or multiple myeloma.

The reason why i highlighted Liver Disease is because it's a genetic disease in my family. And though I've taken a vaccine against it, I'm beginning to be paranoid. Should i be worried?

but how can you take a vaccine for a genetic disease?

I would start by going to the nearest hospital and getiing a full blood analysis. Blood clots are dangerous and can result in heart attacka among others. I have blood coagulation problems and yes they are heridetary. I have been on baby aspirines since I was 27, thats 20 years now. So instead of waiting go the hospital and get a propoer diagnoses.

I've been suffering from this lately .. I have crohn's disease .. which is a chronic inflammatory disease .. and my treating doctor told me those bruises are from the crohn's.

Probably u have inflamation any where in your body .. Or maybe u have anemia .. cuz anemia causes bruises as well.

Aurous,
Because it's genetic, they give you the vaccine so it doesn't develop with time.
I've taken my shot just in case it appears because my dad suffered from it but thankfully had a liver transplant before it gotten worse.

Hellraiser,
Matshof shar inshalla bro.
Well i AM seeing doctors but each one is idiot enough to tell me that it's normal and I've got nothing to worry about.
I can't argue a doctor ;\
