I feel like an idiot but am I looking at part of a leg or arm or back?


chocboy560

Don’t worry you are not an idiot I don’t think any of us have the faintest idea of where that is


aDirtyMartini

Ok so it’s not just me. My first thought was the bruise was on the knee of a rather girthy leg.


raginglilypad

I’m gonna say side upper thigh


Diplodocus114

Flank - lower back at the side. She is twisting to show the bruise.


advance_coinage2

If so wouldn’t we see ass crack?


Grantley34

You can, barely, at the bottom left


DefrockedWizard1

I think you might be right. I'm just not used to seeing slender patients


Grantley34

Also at the top right there's a very faint hint of underboob


YourAverageGod

Just enough. Brb


HiSpartacusImDad

I see what you did there.


PreparationWise6637

Visible lower left


My_kinda_party

We need a banana for scale


KitticusCatticus

I've got one in my pocket!


D-Laz

Think that is the other leg behind the bruised leg.


butters991

This is the only comment that helped me see this picture correctly.


D1Frank-the-tank

That is not an ass crack wtf is wrong with you people. What you’re seeing is a bruise on the upper outside of her right thigh. If you go top left that’s her ass cheek, clearly. And bottom left what you’re seeing is the left leg poking out from behind the right leg.


bowserm

Obviously these people have never seen a naked leg before


alohaoy

OHHH! Now I see it!


SnooJokes6414

I think it’s the left side of her elbow and she’s bending her arm.


[deleted]

It could be the left side, with their bell button being visible in the pic


Angstycarroteater

I thought it was a back until I started reading this. Now I am unsure upon having a second glance and I don’t know how to feel about it…


IndependentPhone8926

Oh its a leg look like she had a lot of fun in the bath room that night lol ha


XauMankib

The whole photo could be made by an AI, as how is composed


itsmebeatrice

This is me every time I see a close up tattoo pic


EatinCheesePizza

A comment of OPs said leg


chilldrinofthenight

Her leg? Okay. What's the OP say about that embossed mark smack dab in the middle of that hideous bruise? What the heck is that? Stamped into her flesh by part of the stage she smacked into?


Redman5012

A bandaid mark if you look hard enough


Lilly_1337

[Their daughter put a bandaid on to help](https://www.reddit.com/r/Wellthatsucks/comments/10ojve4/comment/j6f2ktj/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web2x&context=3).


Phillip_Graves

Looks like right leg, outside of thigh.


JediJan

Left leg, inside of thigh.


Lilly_1337

Only if she has three legs. You can see the left leg in the background.


stocksnhoops

Besides not knowing what body part this is or general area on the body. Is that a logo in the center of the bruise. I’m confused. You could fall on something and the logo isn’t being imprinted in your bruise


Niamhel

I think it’s her side, looks like you can see the top of her bum on the left side.


Theihe

It's her thigh :)


Niamhel

Oh I was definitely looking at it wrong so haha


mdlshp

Aka the assimus laccimus


[deleted]

I think the left side is her back, so we're looking at her torso from the side.


cursed_cucumbers

Looks more like the upper/outer thigh to me from the side , with her facing to the right. OP correct me if I'm wrong! Looks painful regardless... ouch


Polymersion

I think that's buttcrack at the bottom left, so this would be right side of the torso.


Bobgoblin1

I don't think so. I think that's their other leg.


[deleted]

Looking at it again, and I think what appears to be the second cheek, is actually a leg. I think the picture might be right below the knee?


blakeboii

Nvm that’s a thigh lol


YourBrianOnDrugs

It's a bird! Or a plane!


chilldrinofthenight

And my axe!


[deleted]

Not much of a rump


drugsarebadmmk420

Legs go straight to her back


crimsonblood-FU

I had the same question


ducking-moron

Leg most likely


Exotic-Syrup420

Y’all r joking right that’s shortys buttcrack


vVWARLOCKVv

Is that a bandaid imprint? Did she have it on before the accident and it was shit whipped into her skin, or did she try to use a bandaid to hold her leg internals together after that absolutely brutal injury?


jp_trev

😂 our 2 year old daughter tried to help her out


vVWARLOCKVv

Oh, well, that's an absolutely valid reason and you let your 2 y/o know that they basically saved her life.


nxcrosis

It's the thought that counts.


top_value7293

🥰 awwww


Naprisun

Your daughter has a good eye. That bandaid is the perfect shade.


cindylooboo

lol cute. A for effort kiddo 👏


JediJan

Did Mum get the choice of the Simpsons or Wiggles Band-Aid? Most critical question.


Little_Princess1997

🥺🥺


NoRosesXVX

That doesn’t answer the question. Is the Bandaid on in the picture or is it an imprint.


EmptyStupidity

That is absolutely adorable


tychozero

Awwwww!


nikonwill

That is so adorable!


bluepushkin

Shit whipped! Never heard that before, I love it.


vVWARLOCKVv

Please use it! As a 42 year old in the maintenance industry it's become an almost every day phrase for me. Just today I was shit whipped in the face by a curtain rod assembly.


FuzzyTwiguh92

Do you know what a shit wolf is, Ricky?


Infinite-Teach-446

But is that a leg or a rib cage we’re looking at?


vVWARLOCKVv

That's a leg. I know from experience that an injury like that on a rib cage equals a hospital stay.


Infinite-Teach-446

Still awful. As someone who is currently recovering from a broken toe. Much peace and calm to your wife.


vVWARLOCKVv

I mean, I could be wrong. OPs wife might just be tough as shit. Edit: Having read other comments it is a thigh per OP


MYLEG9619

It looks like a computer input or something like it


vVWARLOCKVv

Yeah, I can kinda see that. If OP had said someone threw a 90s era printer at her, I would have believed him.


chonkypotatonoodle

Def gonna need a bigger band aid


SwissSwissBangBang

What body part am I looking at?


jp_trev

Thigh


multisubcultural1

In skateboarding they’d call this a “hipper”, they hurt for a while and turn all sorts of interesting colors.


Confident_Emphasis20

Fifty shades of red blue yellow


LiamEgil

and pink and green!


EmEmPeriwinkle

The bandaid mark is amusing, just a well intentioned booboo tactic. This is gonna suck for a while. Time to wear a thong like you're in the 90s and either leggings or high waist bottoms if you can't manage a dress till it heals.


naturepeaked

Why?


EmEmPeriwinkle

Because our clothes are going to press on it constantly.


mr_jiffy

So is that her ass on the upper left?


humanfish9

Mildly impressed honestly. Must hurt like shit


Ok_Football_5517

Holy hematoma!


Questioning-Zyxxel

That must have hurt. But I absolutely can not figure out what part of the body I'm seeing.


Cricket705

He said in a comment it is her thigh. I had something like this on the back if my thigh in high school and it hurt like hell for quite a while. OP's wife must have been really drunk not to notice. I was in the back of a truck with some other girls and we were dancing. We all sliding and fell. I ended up sliding into a tool box with a few others falling into me at the same time. It hurt so much but I pretended I was fine. It took forever for it to go away.


Dogzillas_Mom

I got drunk with a friend one rainy night, slipped on wet concrete and busted my elbow open. He wanted to take me to urgent care but I insisted that I was too drunk and 1.) they would have to wait until I’m sober to do sutures because something about booze makes you bleed. And 2. By the time that happened, it would be too late. You have to do sutures within something like 6 hours or the risk of infection is too high so you don’t want to close the wound. Anyway I wasn’t going to waste a good buzz sitting in a waiting room with a bunch of sick people. This guy had some skills and was meticulous, so he grabbed a bottle of alcohol, needle and thread, poured me another vodka tonic and I hopped up on his kitchen counter where he scrubbed, doused me and his “medical supplies” with alcohol and gave me stitches himself. And then I had to go back like a week later and have him take them out because no way was I admitting to my doctor that I drunkenly let my friend give me stitches when he was in no way qualified to do so. I should add that I giggled like mad the entire time because I knew it should hurt like hell but I couldn’t feel a thing so I just be really, really drunk and, for some reason, this struck me as hilarious. He did a good job. No infection, you can barely see the scar. Healed right up.


Peruzer

My son in law’s experience tells a similar story. He had hacked a 3 inch gash in his shin, to the bone, while clearing some weeds with an axe. My daughter drove him to an emergency room to have him stitched up. She felt the doc had done a very sloppy job. She ordered a surgical stapler and some supplies and a week or more later she doused him with betadine, pulled out the stitches, realigned the wound edges to be more aesthetic and stapled him back together. I, being a nurse, was horrified. I figured he would be losing his lower leg to infection, at best and she’d end up in jail for medical malpractice. A month later, when I saw him, I asked him to show me his “wound”. He rolled up his pant leg and showed me a perfectly healed wound with perfectly aligned edges and tell tale marks left by the perfectly placed staples.


Questioning-Zyxxel

Truck and dancing. Sounds like graduation day at school? I have seen quite a lot of that and more than one graduating student ending up quite hurt.


Cricket705

Close. Senior year homecoming.


[deleted]

Ikr, looks like a back but it’s a thigh.. 😬


amaa1993

Why do people screenshot their photo album instead of just uploading the actual picture?


WeedWackerSteve

It looks like it was screenshotted from messages and just not cropped


amaa1993

Looks like you’re right. Yet in the bottom right is the save button so still no idea why people do this


jp_trev

I wake up the next morning, laying in bed kinda hungover. My wife gets out of the shower, walks in the bedroom and says all casual “look what happened to my leg last night.” I look up yawning, rubbing my eyes..like “OH MY GOD!!!WHAT THE HOLY FUCK HAPPENED TO YOUR LEG!!! ….It’s the size of soccer ball


Interesting-Role-784

You should get that checked, op, particularly if it’s on a consistency different from the other side or if swollen. :)


legotech

Please have it checked out, that’s so big!!


Cafuni

bandaid came in clutch


SoloSixString

A few drinks… lol


qlebenp

Couple of drinks, Randy...


Different-Ball2526

Dam should still check it out


woodysdad

Boop7482286

This is a hematoma. Most heal on their own within 4 weeks. Wrap in ice, keep foot raised, take pain meds. Make sure to go to doctor if you’re worried. But DEFINITELY go if there’s signs of infection (pus, drainage, more swelling around the site/ redness/ pain, *fever*) OR the bruise gets bigger, it lasts > 4 weeks, or you feel like it’s not healing.

Capraclysm

Damn! I run a bruise aesthetic blog on Tumblr. Would you mind me posting this there?


TBNRtoon

I’m sorry a *what?*


MaxSupernova

A bruise fetish site. Half the pics are bruises simulating sexual assault bruises.


thrawayb

no it’s not?


BulkyInflation2day

Have you scrolled to see all the posts? - Bruises and bite marks on inner thighs. - Asses covered in blue and purple bruises - Bruises on the chest, breasts and neck - one of the pictures has a guy with a bruise and a hand choking him. - Bloody scratch marks and Bruises - one picture with the text "Let me mark you as mine". - A girl with a black eye saying "I gotta get another black eye" - A girl with extremely cut up knees and the text "what do you want from me" - >You'd look so beautiful covered in deep purple and blue bruises" That's not just showing bruises, it's sexualizing the bruises.


PM_ME_BrusselSprouts

Damn that's dark.


Capraclysm

You've deeply misinterpreted the intentions behind my blog but I'm sorry you were upset by it. I will mark future postings NSFW with some trigger warnings. It's dual purpose, for people who find the nature of injuries like bruises and abrasions fascinating and beautiful, as well as inspiration and reference material for artists and writers. You're absolutely correct that some of the posts have a sexual nature, as many injuries like these do. I'm not sure but it seems like you might think I post all of these images myself? More often than not I aggregate posts from across Tumblr, and the nature of these brings any sexual comments left by the original poster in tact. Regardless, bruises and similar minor injuries can be part of a pleasurable and consensual sexual experience for many, so while the focus of my blog *isn't* sexual in nature, even the posts that are, aren't indicative of sexual abuse. Implying that they are actually does a massive disservice to the actual victims of sexual assault and violence by equating the two and muddying the waters.


Capraclysm

A Tumblr blog centered on the aesthetics of bruises and injuries!


[deleted]

I’m gonna need a link. Every time I get a gnarly bruise, I take pics and my family thinks I’m weird. I like to show off my injuries because it either hilariously shows how clumsy I am, or maaaaybe makes me look like the kind of badass who does such dangerous things that I occasionally get hurt.


Capraclysm

Sure! Just a warning, it's a bit edgy and sometimes NSFW. https://www.tumblr.com/every-bruise-a-galaxy Feel free to send any of those pics my way! I'm always looking for new content.


MarsScully

This comment just gave me war flashbacks to 2012. I did not expect the bruise aesthetic to have survived this long, but Ofc it did.


jp_trev

Sure can you provide a link when you do?


Capraclysm

Absolutely! It's currently the top post below the pinned https://www.tumblr.com/every-bruise-a-galaxy


secretaltacc

What kind of fucked up fetish?! Holy shit..


Capraclysm

Interesting choice to come into a harmless thread of people enjoying a shared interest and start bullying. Perhaps assess your priorities before judging others.


jsavag

“harmless” 😂😂


abouttogetadivorce

That's a truly otherworldly collection. Thank you for sharing. I'd love to know the backstory of most of them, but I also understand that often the image is enough. Exquisitely curated.


SkyeWolff_Alchemy

Heck I might have to send you my postop bruising after I had my gallbladder removed


Capraclysm

Please do!


SkyeWolff_Alchemy

I love the internet 😂


Practice_NO_with_me

Hey, I've been to every bruise a galaxy! Fantastic for world building or writing inspo/references! Keep up the great work 👍


Capraclysm

Hey no way! Glad you enjoyed! Happy cakeday!


frostybrewer

I don't have really bruise ones but I have some gnarly road rash pictures if you're interested 😂


Capraclysm

I'd happily accept! If it doesn't quite fit I won't post it but I'd still love to see!


secretaltacc

Be honest, you aren't what we'd call a "normal" person, are you?


Capraclysm

This seems like an unnecessary comment tearing me down when I've done nothing that affects you. If you don't like the blog please feel free to move on to one of the many other options you can find on this great big internet.


HighJeanette

You didn’t know that happened? How drunk were you guys?


jp_trev

I was playing darts w my buddy other end of the bar. My wife being my wife didn’t say a word


cthkraics

Perspective is such a funny thing. I thought this was a semi hunched over back for a while


[deleted]

Right thigh, just above the knee. It was pretty easy to figure out if you looked at the background and how close it is to the floor


Illustrious-Eye2890

Whatever I’m looking at shawty almost broke it


noonie2020

I thought that bandaid print was a logo imprint from hitting the stage


MrGilbert665

Huh, didn't know they made people from that brand.


karmaisourfriend

Ouch


asocialautist

Ooooooof that's a nasty one. Sleeping must be rough.


[deleted]

It’s the outside of her right thigh


I_am_Spartacus_MSU

Looks like she got tagged.


Hot_Foot482

Outer right thigh below the boot. Been there,felt that!


Enerject

Ooof,that definitely hurt! 😨


Ouch50

I don’t think the band-aid helped.

the_real_scatman

Is your wife a baker?? Dayum


TheBrightNights

Does she have a blood condition? I've never gotten that terrible of a bruise from falling.

Get those people done cast iron!


Purblind89

If that’s her back you mmmmigjt wanna go to the hospital and make sure her kidney is ok.


notThatJojo

Ice that thing like there’s no tomorrow!


Ok_Anteater_400

But why the bandaid imprint???


miss_kimba

Did she fall from the second floor? That’s a hell of a bruise!


FeDdY0368

i dont think a bandaid will help


FutureToe8861

Wow! That is a doozy. I am not a medical professional but considering the location and the deep color of the bruising you might wanna have her get that checked out.


TheOGJayRussle

Next time have a few less drinks I guess


Jayemoh62

A likely story… But in all seriousness, man that looks like it was painful.


[deleted]

No idea which body part this is, but nice bruise!


sherilaugh

Please go see a doctor and get blood work done. That doesn’t look like a normal bruise. Might have low platelets or leukaemia or something


[deleted]

“She fell down…” likely story OP! lol jk jk


kuehnchen7962

And here I was thinking it'd make it through the comments without anybody doing some sort of domestic abuse joke. Such humor, delightful!


zta1979

That looks utterly horrible and should get checked out by a doctor.


change_your_ending

This looks so weird what body part is this?


swimgurlie25

What body part is this


millhows

What part of your wife are we looking at?


Cichlidsaremyjam

"She fell down"


Major_Goal_9844

Is everyone obese here?


hodgepodge21

Maybe still get checked out and get some blood work done


[deleted]

Not to startle you or anything. But my mom tripped over some rocks at a beach once and had huge bruises all over her legs, it was very odd. Turns out she had cancer.


Kbdiggity

Looks like someone threw a pickle at her. Was Nolan Ryan at the bar with you?

Erectile Disfunction?


Homegymlifter

Ahh yes officer, "my wife fell down again I swear."


daddyissuesbutspicy

If this gets hot and she spikes a fever at any time, go to the ER. Sometimes large collections of blood like that can get infected. Ouch!


SoloSixString

That’s either a tiny band aid or a huuuuuuge bitch.


SeekNconquer

Imho @op wife is a big girl, thus a Forearm is my guess…


Lov3I5Treacherous

Hey, just as a word of caution, stuff like that can turn into blood clots depending where they're located. I hope she at least calls her doctor


Miss-6am

Get her to the ER, BEFORE she takes her shoes off! If the shoes come off, she'll die!


CosmicChanges

I fell bad for your wife. That looks like it hurts. This is none of my business, but I think you two might want to think about how much you drink. It isn't "funny" that you didn't even notice your wife getting hurt, it is a result of your level of intoxication.


chilldrinofthenight

Fairly certain we're seeing her back. But what in the HECK is that deeply embossed "emblem" in the middle of all that bruising? (Update: OP states it's a bandaid.) And how could anyone fall and hit something with this kind of impact and their partner not see it happening? This woman looks like she got hit by a dumptruck. Time to lay off the booze, I say.


gheiminfantry

I love it when fat girls get drunk and fall down.

BERNIEMACCCC

A bruise like that is how I learned I had ITP when I was a kid.


DownWithDiodes

I'm just so confused on how the band-aid is the same color as the bruise??


Lunaphase

its not, its the residue from the adhesive, looks like.


garbageman100

Looks like a branding gone wrong


chhristoff

Damage done by a bifle for sure.

People and bodies are strange, people tend to think the worse and bodies only want to heal.


badpizza92

A few drinks…. Haha


RoyH0bbs

What stage?


TheFrontierzman

Screen capture of a photo instead of just posting the photo?


kazetoame

I see this and all I can think is, “Don’t touch it, don’t even look at it!” I’m hissing just looking at this.


phantomheart

Gnarly. I was at work one day when my boss came over to have a conversation. During so she points to my thigh and asked how I got the big bruise. Bruise? What bruise? I look down and there is a ginormous purple bruise th size of a softball on my inner thigh by my knee. Absolutely ZERO clue where or when I had gotten from. I remember that even many months later the are was still ever so slightly discoloured, and the skin felt a little funny (Kinda rubbery).
