Bruises, or contusions, are common injuries that occur when small blood vessels beneath the skin are injured by trauma. Trauma can be caused by a fall, bumping against something, or direct impact. The blood leaks into surrounding tissues, producing discoloration that first appears as a deep blue or purple color and then fades with time. Bruises typically resolve in two weeks, though healing time varies on factors like age, health, and treatment regimens.
