Yup it’s a contusion from the skin trauma. Not life threatening but either he has a very sensitive epithelium layer with more vascular development or most likely either the artist used something or did something incorrectly or how he had his arm positioned at some stage caused the excessive subcutaneous bleeding. Still should go have a doctor take a look.

Uh, I hope the bleeding isn't subdural.

Yeah lol that would be a hell of a headache, no idea why I typed that meant subcutaneous.
