Hello,
Nitre Dur patch has no such side effects that may cause bruise in the skin at different places.
Sometimes, deficiency of vitamin K & C may cause a bruise. If you have a history of some bleeding disorder than you can have such a symptom.
You are suggested to report the symptom to your treating doctor so that you can be physically examined, treated or referred to a dermatologist.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
