Thank you very much for contacting healthcare magic.

According to your complain you have problem of bruish in hand region that may be because of injury to hand.Blood vessels under skin rupture and blood leak in connective tissue may cause bruishing. That can subside within 3 to 4 week.

Low platelets count cause bruishing. Check your platelets count. Clothing disorder may lead to this type of problems.

Anticoagulant medicine also cause bruishing area.
Consent a physician for further diagnosis.
Proper physical examination give exact idea.

I hope my guidance is helpful to you.
Take care.
Thanks.
