In our bodies there is a very rich vascular system, blood pumped from the heart through the great arteries to the smaller vascular systems and then radiate capillaries to bring oxygen-rich blood and substances nutrition to the body's cells. Then get back the blood that contains much CO2 and the waste products emitted by the cells, according to the vein system back to the heart.

These arterial and venous systems, especially capillaries, can break down due to the effects of mild external trauma, causing blood to escape to form unprovoked bruises.

What causes these blood vessels to become more fragile? In the elderly due to fragile capillaries, there are also frequent gratuitous bruises.

In young people, there are many causes that make the system fragile, but one of the most common causes is lack of vitamin C, so if you often see bruising, you should first try taking more vitamins. C drink 0.5 to 1 gram daily or use fresh fruits containing many vitamins such as lemon, cherry, grapefruit .

If after 1 month and still not all, you should go to the doctor to make some more tests to find out if it is an external manifestation of some undiscovered latent diseases such as diabetes, kidney failure , gum disease, blood cancer is more dangerous if not treated promptly.
