Abstract
Bruising in the elderly can be relatively common due to changes in the skin and blood vessels that occur with aging. Several factors such as skin changes, medications, comorbidities contribute to an increased susceptibility to bruising in older individuals. While mild bruising is often a normal part of aging, it's important to pay attention to any unusual or severe bruising, especially if it occurs without apparent cause or is accompanied by other concerning symptoms. We report a case of asymptomatic bruising in an elderly woman with multifactorial aetiology secondary to medications, liver dysfunction and probable occult malignancy.
