4. Petechiae and Bruises

Tiny, red-purple spots that appear on your skin in random clusters is known as petechiae. Myelodysplastic Syndrome can cause petechiae and bruises. Even if you don’t bang your knee on the edge of something, you might notice that you are bruising easier than usual. These marks show up after minor, internal bleeding takes place because of broken capillaries or vessels. Because the bone marrow already has a low platelet count then frequent internal bleeding can occur just as must as it does externally.
