Its like the blood spot you would get under the skin if you hit yourself with a hammer.

no idea why they are called so? They do really hurt though, I have had quite a few in the past, they don't last long though, just a couple of hours, but it is just a very tight pinch of skin, usually caught in something or a trapped finger! The bruise is immediate as it is a very small piece of skin, think cos the bruise looks black is why it gets its name? Not very politically correct though eh!

Give someone a black mans pinch by nipping the skin of the forearm. Kids do it to one another for fun! Subcutaneous haematoma is both the medically and politically correct term
