What Causes Blue Green Bruise On The Feet?

Hello, 4 days ago, I noticed a blue-green bruise with a white center on the top of my foot. There was no preceding injury to cause the bruise. The white center is not hard, feels like a puffy vein. There is no pain or discomfort. The bruise seems to be fading, changed to a pale red color. What could this be?

Spontaneous bruise usually occurs in low platelet conditions.
Please get your platelet levels checked.
