Suggest Remedy For Bruises In Lower Back

My 4 year old has kept nickel size bruises down his lower back for the past year. I mentioned it at his 3 yr old check up and he is very active boy so dr said probably completely normal but he always has them. Sometimes there seem to be a only a few around his spine and the Sometimes more of them all around the lower spine but I never see them purple just always a light brown color like a bruise in final stage before it goes away. He is a very rough boy. Falls on ground on purpose, bumps into everything, climbs, jumps etc. so I just keep thinking he is doing something to bruise his back but he never complains. This has been consistent for a while and I am starting to worry.

dear user, for your 4 year old boy, i would like to suggest best home remedy, Icy Hot on my low back (though the muscles feel ok) and Epsom salt baths for as long as he can sit for the inflammation... plus a few advil every day.
this may help in reducing bruises.
