Bruised? (spoiler)

I was curious about a scene that comes very shortly after the film's climax. Tyler is standing in front of a mirror examining what seems to be a bruise between his chest and shoulder when his mother calls him down to breakfast. What was the significance of this? At first I thought it might have been a bruise he got tussling with the killer, but since the scene comes after the "missing" flyers for him are already posted, it seems it takes place some time after that fracas. What gives?

Yes, it’s the same, the bruise is in the exact spot that he is hit with the butt stock when he’s wrestling with his father on the bed. Bruises can last a long time, and the flyers may have only been up for a few days for all we know.
