Etymology

The word 'contuse' originated from the Latin word 'contusus', which means 'bruised'. It entered the English language in the early 17th century. The term has been used in medical literature to describe non-penetrating injuries that result in bruising. Over time, 'contuse' has become a specialized term used in the medical field to differentiate bruising from other types of injuries.
