[/INST] Hi, dairy have gone through your question. I can understand your concern. You may have some bleeding disorder. You should go for platelets count, bleeding time, clotting time, prothrombin time and activated partial thrombi time. So go for coagulation profile test. It will give you exact idea about cause of bleeding tendency. Then take treatment accordingly. Hope I have answered your question. If you have any doubts then feel free to ask me. I will be happy to answer. Thanks for using Chat Doctor. Wish you a very good health. </s>
