Brief Answer:
Colour change of bruise

Detailed Answer:
Hello and welcome to ask a doctor service. I have gone through your query and viewed the image.

I think it was a bruise which is now resolving and therefore shows colour change. I would suggest you to just observe it for a few days and it should fade away.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if you need any more assistance
