I'm finding all sorts of sore spots on my body. No visible bruises as of yet, but they feel like they are bruised. I assume this is from the blood thinners, correct? How long does this last? I had surgery on July 27th

It's probable. A bruise can last anywhere between 7-14 days depending on the thickness of your skin.

I would suggest that you check with your Dr. and get some labs done. Vitamin deficiencies can cause you to bruise very easily.
