What Is The Bruising In My Butt After I Was Smacked?
After being playfully smacked on my butt by a friend (not especially hard) I woke up a couple days later to see what seems to be polkadot purple bruising on my behind. I typically do not bruise easily over muscley areas such as my butt. Was I hit harder than initially thought or could this be something else?

you have what is called post trumatic purpura which is non significant and does not need active treatment
