I have a couple rashes that look like bruises. One is on my abdomen and one on my back. I've had them for a couple weeks now. I think I've read that these are caused by Bart? Is that correct?
Would make sense as I have been treating Bart and have had many Bart symptoms recently. Also had some Bart scratch-like rashes close to the rashes for a few days. Anyone have personal experience with these "bruises" and asked your LLMD about it? Thanks.

I don't but always get pics for your records...
Bruise like rashes need definitive diagnosis. And some may require blood tests.

I'm getting "bruises" all the time lately from Barts. They disapear after a few days. One time, after an almost black one, I saw a broken bloodvessel under the skin after the bruise had cleared up a little. I hate this disease!
