Probably: You might have bumped into something without realizing it and yes bruises tend to get darker after a few days before start fading away leaving first a yellowish tinge before complete resolution. If you are taking aspirin or fish oil , you may bruise easier. If this is a frequent occurrence, you need to consult your doctor to find out if you are a bleeder.
