OKay, so I'm 17, female. And I play basketball, cheer and track. Well A couple weeks ago. I say like the 9th and 10th of July I had a basketball tournament. Well My knees and legs got banged up, but the bruises are still there, mainly on my shine(spelling). I'm seeing some on my arms too. The one on my shine, doesn't hurt. But on my arm it does. I have no idea how I'm getting the ones on my arms. I'm scared that it is Leukemia, My grandmother just died 7 months ago form it. I don't know if I'm just freaking myself out or what. Any ideas?
Yes excessive bruising is a symptom of Leukemia, but it's also a symptom of low iron, excess vitamin b, diabetes, physical sports, or you could just be like me - I bruise very easily. I see bruises (some really bad) on my legs that I have no clue where they come from. Bottom line is that because of the past incident (your grandmother) Leukemia is on your mind. Either way, you should probably go see a doctor. Even if it's nothing, the stress of not knowing could cause illness in it's self. It will be best if you can see a doctor and understand more what it is. I will say one thing though...DON'T look it up on the internet. One time I had a place (not a bruise but same type of story) on my throat. It came so suddenly and stuck around. I decided to look it up on the internet. The only thing that kept coming up was "The Silent Killer" and throat cancer. Turned out it was nothing, however I put off going to the doctor in fear of hearing the worst. I'm sure you don't have anything to worry about, but it won't hurt to go, even if it's just to put you at ease. I hope I've been of some help and sorry this was a little long.
