Hello !
I read your question and understand you concern.
In my opinion the bruises he has may be related to a trauma . Has he fell lately , or has he told you anything like that? Children at this age are often having traumas during the play.
I would recommend you to bring him to the doctor and have a physical examination. He may need further tests like and xray , a full blood work .
Hope to have been helpful!
