Is it normal for me to bruise from bras?

For the last several years I have had 2 bruises on my back that I assumed where from my bra. So I got sized at Victoria Secret and bought a new bra. Didn't help. So I just continued to buy bras that seemed to fit and felt good. My bruises are brownish but they do not hurt. Now I have gotten newer ones right below my breasts on each side. The ones on my back appear darker as well. I'm 23 yrs old and Ive become very worried about them ad my wedding is approaching. Is it still my bra size or something else?

    I have one of those on the side of one of my breast. It happened because of the wire in the bra. Totally normal. It's just like a person whose skin chaffs alot it will become a darker color or look at your elbows for example, peoples elbows turn darker cause they are constantly holding up your arms or rubbing up against stuff.

    I think I have the same sort of thing on one side of my back, I just attributed it to the fabric irritating my skin and making it darker. They are def not bruises though

    You might be allergic to a fabric or wire in the bra, ask your doctor if u are very worried

    Maybe it has to do with the wires in the front and it's too tight in the back. That's all I can think of. Maybe try a wireless bra and wear it on the loosest clasp thing in the back.
