Hello,

It can be a simple bruise developed due to some minor trauma. As of now you can apply icepacks and in most cases it will get settled by itself.

If lesion persists you can consult a physician and get evaluated. In that case possibilities like echymoses must be ruled out.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
