Best Answer

A bruise (called a contusion) can burn, itch, feel warm or hot, feel tender or ache, etc. The best explanation is that our skin has millions of sensory nerves. A bruise results from minor bleeding under the skin. This can stretch the skin slightly. This slight stretching can cause the 'symptom' you describe.

A bruise might feel hot because it's formed by leakage from blood vessels. Afterwards, the familiar purple color appears. Burning sensations can happen mostly in depending size to the bruise.
