What Is The Cause For Bruises On The Deltoids ?
I developed small bruising spots on my deltoids on both sides and a light bruising in a crescent shape on the back of my armpits. I just got over a back strain, where I was in bed for 3 days due to nerve pain when I moved. Can you tell me what this odd bruising is please?

Hello,
It could be due to minor abrasion or small trauma.
It is nothing but a collection of blood underneath the skin.
No definitive treatment is required and it will settle by itself.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
