What Is The Dark Purple Indention In Buttock With No Change In Shape Or Color? Taking Mobic And Plaquenil

I have recognized a dark purple indention to my upper left buttocks, the center has clear scar-type area that webs out to the darker purple. Not a bruise. There has been no change in shape or color over months. I take Mobic, but as I said, not a bruise. Also take Plaquenil, have any ideas?

it could be morphoe, if its surface is slightly indurated or more commonly just macular amyloidosis because of rubbing..so just stop rubbing or avoid friction in tat area and use moisturiser only.
