A bruise on my wrist has appeared two days ago. it has a red circle in the centre it is not painful just itchy does not disappear when pressed on?

Sounds like a bite: because bruises are typically painful and almost never itch. Were you outside over the weekend? Try an antihistamine if needed (you may be able to find it in cream form) and apply warm compresses to help it heal faster.
