What Could The Brown Bruise On Foot Of A Child Indicate?
My son is an active 7 year old with no know health problems. He has a solid chocolate brown bruise on the bottom of his foot the size of a silver dollar. He says it doesn't hurt and he doesn't know how it happened. Should I be concerned? My family has a history of diabetes.

Hi,
Thank you for asking question on health care magic.
I think it may be subcutaneous hemorrhage vanishing gradually.
Probably it may be due to some injury during play taken lightly by him.
Hope this answer will serve your purpose
Please feel free to ask any more queries if required
Take care
