    Actually, I found some bruises on the sides of my abdomen, too. I feel okay. I’ve been a little tired, but that’s because I’ve been so busy with work, trying to get in shape, and taking my cat to several vets for medical help. I’m probably okay. It’s just weird.

      Eh, it’s worth an appointment to be on the safe side imo. The bruises as pictured and described are very reasonable for the activities you’ve listed, but it’s always better you be safe than sorry.

      The number you mentioned in one comment is normal, but it isn’t the only thing a doctor would want to test for safety.

      Given what you’re describing, this sounds a lot like my wife’s issues with anemia. It’s nothing super major, but worth looking into with your doctor. Usually can find out with a basic blood test.

      trying to get in shape

      Doing what? These look very similar to the bruises my wife gets working out.
