Can weak capillaries cause ruptures...marks on the skin? Posted: 09-12-06 04:47am
1 year ago, my legs got many "blood marks"
appear automatically, just like hit by
hard things. I went to 2 hospitals, doctor
let me have a few blood tests and x-ray,
but can't find the reason. I try chinese
med, no improvement too. Now the "blood
mark" become bigger and pain. Last time
there's no much feeling even when I press
on the "mark". Now the marks spread
through whole lower part of my left and
right leg. According to the doctor in the
Specialist centre, it may cause by my
"blood capilaries" break. Is there any
similiar case with me before? Hope to get
answer soon. Thank you for your help.
According to the symptoms reported
(“blood marks” on the legs) and all
negative blood tests (you didn’t tell me
which blood tests you’ve done!) I
can’t begin to suppose what might be the
problem. I'll need more information. If
the blood is OK, then capillary weakness
or fragility could be the cause for the
condition. You may consult a vascular
specialist for an expert opinion.
