What Does A Bruised Lump On Chest Indicate?

My daughter is 15 months. I just noticed a bruise on her chest. I felt it and it is a lump. It feels squishy and i can move it. It has definate edges to it. I am concerned as my daughter has a hemangieoma on her face and her's looks very raised and bruised. It feels different than her hemangioma. What could this lump on her chest be? Could it be related to her hemangioma at all?

Hi
Greetings
If there is no pain on pressing , no evidence of inflammation and its a big patch possibility of Av malformation needs to be considered. It can appear anytime after birth.
Exact diagnosis will depend on clinical examination.
