Bruising is typically caused by damage to blood vessels under the skin, leading to blood leaking out and forming a visible mark. This damage can result from injury, trauma, or certain medical conditions that affect blood clotting or vessel integrity. Aging and certain medications can also increase susceptibility to bruising.

Thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (TTP) is a rare blood disorder characterized by excessive clotting throughout the body's small blood vessels. This clotting can lead to a decrease in platelet count, causing anemia and symptoms like bruising, bleeding, and organ damage. TTP is considered a medical emergency and requires prompt treatment to prevent complications.

When the skin gets pinched, small blood vessels called capillaries can break or rupture, causing blood to leak into the surrounding tissues. This blood may appear close to the surface of the skin, creating bruising or discoloration, but it doesn't always mean that the skin will bleed externally. The blood typically remains trapped beneath the skin, leading to the visible discoloration.
