Bleeding Tendency — Which Doctor Should I See?

Bleeding tendency is an increased susceptibility to bleed excessively from minor injuries or spontaneously. It can result from clotting disorders, low platelet counts, or blood vessel abnormalities.

Seek immediate medical care if you experience unexplained bruising, prolonged bleeding from cuts, nosebleeds, blood in urine or stool, or excessive menstrual bleeding.

Common causes include hemophilia, von Willebrand disease, low platelet count, liver disease, vitamin K deficiency, and certain medications like blood thinners.
