8 concerning skin conditions that show up after 40
8. Bruising
A bruise is really the evidence of damage to tiny blood vessels under the skin as a result of an injury.
As we age, we bruise more and more easily, for several reasons:
- Older skin is thinner and has less fat to protect blood vessels
- Blood vessels tend to become more fragile
- Medications like blood thinners and aspirin make blood clotting more difficult, and so encourage bruising
