Al, I have a question !if a person sees one bruse on her body should i be concerned and contact my new heart dr. at the LOMA LINDA heart institute? I dont know if you remember I told you about being in the hospital in sept for my level being so high i ended up having 5pints of blood anyway plz let me know thank you for being here for all of us chris
 
If you do not have any idea of how the bruise got started and it is big and getting bigger and looking ugly, I would call the doctor or go to the ER. If it is starting to look yellow, I would not do anything because it is going away.

Chris,

Al has given you some good guidelines.

I'll just add, if the bruise is in a place that you don't normally get bruises, such as ribs, upper arm or facial area, you might want to have it checked out.

If it is a place that you normally bump: thigh, lower arm, shin or hip, and it isn't overly painful or swollen, then I would just watch it.

You'll have to be the judge of what is normal for you. I do not bruise any easier being on coumadin IF I'm in range, or even slightly over, than I did before I went on it.

Hope this helps.

If your last INR was 6.6, these things are probably due to that. If it makes you worried, you will need to go to the ER.
