Bro, that is totally normal. The bruising in your abdomial region isn't bruising....its subcutaneous bleeding. You ever turned your ankle or took a hard hit on your shin and it had discoloration blow the true injury site? Gravity..... Same thing here. You will be glad to know you can speed your recovery and remove those blood patches by using DMSO directing on the spots 3 times per day. I suggest 90% pure DMSO mixed with aloe vera gel at a 2/1 ratio. Apply to your chest at least 3 times/day and the swelling and bruising will be gone in about 3 days. Promise....I rehab athletes from surgery for a living and have used this method on muscle tear etc. If you don't see results in 2 days, use pure dmso...no aloe.
