What Causes Ring Shaped Bruise In Inner Thigh?

Hi, I have a circular bruise in my inner thigh area. The bruise used to itch a lot for about 2 days but not any more. The bruise is still there after 3 days when itching ended. It is about a quarter size. The outer part of the bruise is lighter in color while the inner part is my normal skin tone. Its like a ring. What are the possible things that I might have?
