Brief Answer:
could be ruptures varicose veins .

Detailed Answer:

Hi,

In my opinion this sudden bruising could be due to sudden stretching of skin( with microvasculature injury) or varicose veins getting ruptured.
You should go for a consultation with your physician who, after examining you will be able to tell you more about it.

Please keep us posted on the results of consultation.
Thanks.
