A nurse in a clinic is caring for a client who has alcohol use disorder. The client reports frequent bruising and nosebleeds. Which of the following conditions should the nurse suspect?

A. Cirrhosis: Alcohol-related liver damage impairs synthesis of clotting factors, leading to easy bruising, bleeding, and nosebleeds. Portal hypertension may also contribute to coagulopathy. B. Diabetes mellitus: Diabetes can cause microvascular complications over time but does not directly cause easy bruising or spontaneous bleeding. C. Cholecystitis: Inflammation of the gallbladder causes right upper quadrant pain and digestive symptoms, but does not affect clotting or platelet function. D. Hepatitis A: Hepatitis A causes acute liver inflammation and jaundice but is usually self-limiting and does not typically result in frequent spontaneous bleeding in adults.
