My dog had some stitches and a drain tube put in on his rib cage from running into a ladder. His tube was removed yesterday morning and I just noticed some dark purple bruising in an unrelated to the injury spot near his groin. What should I do?

He may have banged into his willy when he hit the ladder causing this bruising, or it could have been when he was in for his operation. It should settle with time, if it diesnt look swollen i would keep an eye on it and apply some arnica cream.
