Why don't i have a Bruise?!


Question: Why don't i have a Bruise?
yesterday i was at a park on parallel bars... kinda like the one's at physical therapy. anyway i fell on the bar on my forearm it hurt a little bit but the pain subsided and i was fine. Today i woke up and i accidentally touched my arm it hurt really bad. trying to think of why it would hurt i remembered my fall. BUT, there is no visable bruise at all... i talked to my sister and she refered to the term "inside Bruise" why isnt a bruise forming??
here is a link of what the bars look like- http://www.google.com/imgres?imgurl=http://www.gametime.com/product/4631/4631_Parallel-Bars_model%2520view.jpg&imgrefurl=http://www.gametime.com/products/pdetail.asp%3Fmn%3D4631%26pn%3DParallel%2520Bar%26l%3DGTSports%26g%3DFitKid%26promo%3D0&usg=__murrHQt1TO6qW1AZNN1aVIzy0Pc=&h=517&w=600&sz=17&hl=en&start=0&zoom=1&tbnid=uvboVybn-RaMUM:&tbnh=121&tbnw=143&ei=DxiFTbXvHZOqsAPZ8IDWAQ&prev=/images%3Fq%3Dparallel%2Bbars%2Bat%2Bpark%26um%3D1%26hl%3Den%26sa%3DN%26biw%3D1596%26bih%3D694%26tbs%3Disch:1&um=1&itbs=1&iact=rc&dur=470&oei=DxiFTbXvHZOqsAPZ8IDWAQ&page=1&ndsp=38&ved=1t:429,r:26,s:0&tx=103&ty=70

Answers:

My guess is that the injury wasn't significant enough to cause a visible bruise. If there's any type of pain when you slightly bump it, then that's a sign that the body is repairing. So don't worry. If there was no pain at all, then I'd worry.



Ummmmm.
The swelling is inside of your arm its not really severe depending on its size though but it will take longer to heal than a normal bruise because its internal.

Ive had a couple. I think
