ESR indicates there is infection in the body. Also there is bruises.. To rule out the it the history is important. Any other symptoms do you have? Without any prblm body didn't gave indications. For better treatment you should take consultation. You can take consultation by me on practo.

Bruises are generally due to breakage of capillaries below the skin (and mucus membrane, gums). Do you have bleeding gums ?. Take Vitamin C tablets ( Chewcee 500 mg) once dail and plenty of Citrus family fruits.
Check for new bruises after exerting pressure on arm. That may confirm capillary breakage due to Vitamin C deficiency.

Actually ESR shows that there is some chronic infection going on in the body, 27 is upper normal limit, if you don’t have any sign or symptoms of any disease that’s fine, but if have.. then see your doctor…. and to be on safe side repeat ESR after some days… Good Luck
