Just wondering if anyone has an answer for me. I have Hashi's and I bruse VERY easily. Example: washing my hands today and noticed something on my knuckle, I now have a bruse the cover about 1/3 of the top of my hand.

I'm not terribly knowledgable about Hashimoto's, but I do know that it can cause intermittent episodes of hyperthyroidism, and these can be associated with easy bruising.

Really, if this is a new symptom you should call your doctor. It may be that your thyroid is high, or it could be another condition that needs attention.
