I have a large brown stain that looks like a burn on my cheek. i've had it for 3+ days. what could it be?

Parotid bruise: One can see a pigment change coming from the parotid gland. That is a saliva gland under your cheek. It should be very carefully checked by your ENT doctor. The color can also be a skin growth and should be checked.
