Hello. Thanks for writing to HCM.
I read and understand your question very well.
I try my best to help you in this.
As you are a runner and feeling a lower back pain and bruise at lower back.
This may happen due to improper posture of running , or may be you have some small injury and you didn't notice.
I suggest you to consult a good orthopedic surgeon for this.
I hope my advice will help you a lot.
Thanks and Regards.
