  2. Easy bruising that occurs with no physical injury; 
  3. Excessive bleeding after a medical procedure or dental extraction; and
  4. A history of muscle or joint bleeding with no physical injury.

  • Having one or more of the bleeding symptoms above and a family member with a bleeding disorder such as VWD or hemophilia.
