A member asked:
Can a 2 year old get matching bruising on both cheeks from biting on the inside of their cheeks?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not likely: Biting the cheeks from inside would not necessarily cause bruising that you can see on the outside. I would look for some other source of the bruising.
