: Help,
: I am 29yo and female. Since May I have been getting a reoccuring rash or brusing on my legs (just from the knee down). It is very painful for the first few days and then the pain goes away. The rash or spots will stay for a week or so and then fade away. At the same time I will break out in welt's on the side of one thigh. This will leave severe bruising (it itches).
: I have a history of blood clots.

: I have other health problems, however, this isn't a related symptom of them.

: Any help would be greatly appreciated!
