Guest guest Posted January 23, 2004 Report Share Posted January 23, 2004 Yep it's me again with another weird question I'm afraid, you must be getting sick of me and my curiosity by now! My query this time is about spontaneous external bleeding from burst blood vessels. I've had instances where blood vessels will break, bleed and cause haematomas before but tonight one of the vessels in my leg burst and actually broke through the skin. I was sat at my desk, felt a pain in my leg and when I looked down there is a pool of blood on the floor! I wasn't sat close to anything that I could have knocked against, it just went ping and began bleeding. It's just a small vessel in my thigh, but it bled a lot and took quite a while to finally stop too, actually restarting several times. It's stopped for the moment, so fingers crossed that's the last I've heard from it! I'm now left with a kind of bruised area and a strange hole in my leg, it's not exactly painful just a little tender and sore. Has anyone else had anything like this? Is it a normal occurrence with EDS? Sorry for asking so many questions again, it just spooked me a little having this happen. I've had spontaneous skin tears etc and as mentioned bruises etc but this was just so different and odd. Thanks for in advance and for listening and my apologies for bringing up something so trivial!! Hope you are all well and sending hope of painfree days to you. Love and hugs....Jo xx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
