Bruising from Poison Ivy

I have been told that bruising can occur from having poison ivy.  This bruise is about 3 cm in diameter and no broken skin, and no poison ivy on it.  I have only had experience with poison ivy seeping and just getting itchy, and no bruising.  I would like to have an answer as soon as possible.

I have bruising and poison ivy too.  Most of the bruises surround the poison ivy except in oen area and all are on my left leg even though i have plenty of posion ivy every where else.  My Nurse Practitioner didn't seem concerned, but if they don't go away in another day or so I'm goin back.

Also currently getting over poison ivy when I began to bruise on week 3 and also all on my left leg even though I have poison ivy everywhere else. I know your case was a long time ago now but I am curious as to how it developed after posting your comment.
