Hi, my 1.5 year old son has blue patches on both legs. These patches come and go frequently. Some tests were done and the doctor said it is because of vitamin K and gave him a shot last month in July, but the patches are still coming. I am attaching the blood report and pictures of the patches. Please help.

Could be related to capillary fragility or clotting issues. If blood reports are normal, consider a pediatric hematologist. Monitor for bruising elsewhere.

Take a APTT Test (Activated Partial Thromboplastin Time) Test or Take a CBC Test (Complete Blood Count) Test

I am suffering from DVT and till now I am getting pain in my leg. I am taking Warf tablet according to my INR blood report and I check my INR every alternate week. What treatment should I go through to get well soon as I was before?

Answered by Apollo Doctors

My skin bruises very easily, even with light bumps. I have had a complete CBC blood test, and all results are normal. I am not sure what could be causing this. Please advise what might be the reason and if any further tests are needed.

I am currently 22 weeks pregnant and have tested APLA positive. I have been prescribed Enoxaparin 40 mg injections daily. I have attached my recent APTT and PT reports for your review. Could you please let me know if the current dose of Enoxaparin (40 mg) is appropriate for my condition, or if any adjustments are needed?
