Achenbach's Syndrome: Hard to say for sure without exam but it sounds like something called achenbach's syndrome. Usually caused by leakage of blood from bursted vessel, resulting in a bruise. Sometimes a minor pressure from activity such as griping may bring it on. No definite treatment but ice pack applied at onset will help. See your doctor for further eval and reasurance.
