hi im having blood test done as i keep coming out in bruises, that past results have shown platlets are low in the blood which the think due to viral infection. i have had blood taken this morning now where the site is i have came out in a blood blister could this be down to blood clotting should i phone the doctor for advice ?
Hello and welcome to Chat Doctor, Low platelet count can lead to frequent bruising. Viral infection can lead to low platelet counts. Formation of blood blister at the site where blood was taken could be either as result of low platelet counts or due to local trauma at the site. Thanks and take care Chat Doctor.
