Ive noticed some bruises or blood formations under my skin. on thigh and on shoulder after carrying a heavy bag. any cause for concern?

Bruises : Bruises from heavy pressure can be normal depending on how long it was on. The flip side is that the pressure was not very much and your bruises were from minimal pressure and the patient has blood clotting issues. The answer to this for you requires more details.
