What Causes Bruising On Ears?

My 7 month old daughter woke up this morning with both her ears bruised on the inside of her upper fold part on her ears. I was considering taking her to the ER but she was tired and put her for a nap, when she woke up the bruising was les purple than when we first saw it but still there. Any ideas as to what this might be?

HI
Well come to HCM
I can understand your concern, this could be allergic condition and most of the time this comes around on its own in very rare condition this needs treatment you have to keep a watch on this if this comes again or symptom does not improved then antihistamine can be tried and the best agent is Diphenhydramine in syrup base, you can still have to see the pediatrician, take care.
