Possible Causes
Generally, Joint bleeding can be related to:
- Immune Thrombocytopenic Purpura
Immune thrombocytopenic purpura (ITP) happens when the immune system mistakenly attacks and destroys platelets, which are blood cells that help with clotting. ITP can cause low platelet levels, leading to easy bruising and bleeding. Triggers include infections like HIV and hepatitis.
- Essential Thrombocythemia
Essential thrombocythemia is a rare disorder where the body produces too many platelets, which are blood cells that stick together to form clots. It may be caused by several acquired gene mutations, which are not inherited.
Congenital Hemophilia
Congenital hemophilia is a genetic bleeding disorder resulting in insufficient blood clotting due to a deficiency of clotting factors.
- Alcohol-related liver disease
Acquired Hemophilia
- von Willebrand Disease (vWD)
- Liver Cirrhosis
- Cushing's Syndrome
- Amyloidosis
Related Serious Diseases
Sometimes, Joint bleeding may be related to these serious diseases:
- Leukemia
Leukemia is a cancer of the body's blood cell-forming tissues. Blood cells circulate in our bloodstream and are created and matured in the bone marrow and the lymphatic system. Leukemia involves white blood cells and lymphatic cells and has several types. The cancerous cells are produced in excess and do not function normally. Leukemias can be aggressive and cause symptoms or chronic and smolder for years.
