What Do Single Horizontal Bruise Line Across The Stomach Indicate?
my 13 year old son has a single horizontal bruise line across his stomach to include his belly button. Every time he eats, after the first few bites, he has to go to the bathroom for a #2. He complains about cramping right before going to the bathroom but afterwards he is fine and no pain.

Hi,
Ecchymoses on the abdomen may be due to self-injury or due to rubbing by the hard thing. Going to the bathroom immediately after eating may be a psychological problem. Consult the dermatologist for the skin lesion. And also get the opinion of psychiatrist regarding his habit.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
