Has anyone seen excessive leg bruising since becomming more active? I've been working out about 5 days a week for 3 weeks and my legs particularly my upper thighs look like I got beatup and the bruises last forever!

    Yes, I walked laps in the pool the other day for about 2 hours and I have a big 'ole bruise on the back of my leg that I didn't have before then.

    Yes, I have a big bruise above my knee cap and it's been there for 2 weeks. It's just turning yellow now.

    I would see a doctor, since bruising can be a sign of a whole bunch of issues. Sometimes bruising can be a sign of vitamin deficiency, which makes sense in this context.
