What Causes A Large Painless Bruise With Hallow Around Kidney Area?

I have a large painless bruise with a white halo surrounding a central red spot. There seems to be no pain or itching but there is some slight scabbing of the central red spot. I was unaware of the injury until it was noticed by my wife. The bruise is over my left kidney area. Do I need to see a Doctor.? Did not realise I was expected to pay. You should have told me up front and I wouldn t have wasted your time or mine. Thanks for nothing!

Hi,

The bruises may be due to a minor trauma that you might have unnoticed. Nothing much to worry and it will settle by itself even without treatment. You can consult a physician only if the bruises expand or in case of symptoms like pain.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
