What Causes Bruised Spot On The Foot Of A Cardiac Patient?

My husband had a heart attack1 year ago, today we had a follow up appointment and all is well. Tonight after removing his shoes we see he has a bruised area on the same place on the top of both feet - in exactly the same place on both feet. No pain - foot is cool but that is normal. Question - why would each foot have a bruised spot exactly the same shape in exactly the same place on both feet? Shoes fit well and are very comfortable, and we did a little walking but not excessive.
