Bruising is one of the most common symptoms of leukaemia. However, we all bruise, so how do you know when that bump on your knee or purple mark on your arm is due to something more serious? Well, that's the thing - the signs and symptoms of leukaemia can often seem harmless. But if you find you're bruising a lot, or they take ages to disappear, or they're in unusual places, it's worth thinking: could these bruises be a sign of something serious like leukaemia? Here, patients describe their bruising prior to diagnosis. Be ready to #SpotLeukaemia ➜ www.spotleukaemia.org.uk
