Hello dear
I understand your concern
Your bruise could be a due to pressure, medicine like aspirin and some alleric reaction.
Sometime eye rubbing during the use of aspirin produce the bruise.
I will resolves by itself with in 2-3 week.
Apply cold compression
If you have itching and pain then take
Tablet buprufen and cetrizine.
