Hi,
The bruise also called ecchymosis on the lower back mwy be due to minor unknown traumaor friction most probably. However, consult the dermatologist for the perfect diagnosis and proper treatment.He may go for few investigations to rule out the internal causes. Then after,he may render perfect treatment.
Hope this helps.
