Bruises in individuals with leukemia occur due to a decrease in platelet count, a condition known as thrombocytopenia. Leukemia can disrupt the normal production of blood cells in the bone marrow, leading to insufficient platelets, which are essential for blood clotting. As a result, even minor injuries can cause bleeding beneath the skin, resulting in visible bruises. Additionally, leukemia can also affect the blood's ability to clot effectively, exacerbating the tendency to bruise easily.
