HAND PRINT BRUISE

I wanted to know if a hand print bruise wrapped around a toddlers arm showing all five fingers to be normal. We were told the bruise was a result of a person helping the toddler stable themselves on a toilet. I also wanted to know how much force would it take to create that bruise.

Too much force was applied when that person hold the kid. Even if the kid has the tendency to get bruised easily, a normal hold will not leave bruises. I have a hyperactive 2-year old son that I have to contain forcefully but he got no bruises, only when he bumped into hard objects. Please make sure that the person taking care of your child is not hurting the child when you're not around.
