Sexual attraction to bruises?

Is there a Medical diagnosis or a term, Like Paraphilias? for the Sexual attraction to bruises?

-i have tried Wiki and other places,Nothing Came up.

Thanks <3

Update:

Also! NOT! BDSM - Just when ever i see a Bruise on a male, its Very Attractive. ALSO! NOT Sadistic I would NEVER Purposely cause a Bruise !

and, i like Bruises on my self, Again i don't Cause it.Just if i trip or something. I like the look of Bruises.

(hope i'm not Scary >-<)

Update 2:

Oh My Gosh! Thank you so much! (Becki H) Finally! i got a Decent answer. Well i Definitely learned more about this,it's good to hear it from another Persons Perspective! Yeahhh it's quite difficult to find,

i still haven't seen anything else relating to the matter, as you said it's a 'Lack of study' hard to come across. It's not to Late for the Reply, I just Now Checked back. If i find anything i'll let you Know, Thanks so much! Again. ^-^

    I have the same attraction, although I wouldn't call it sexual for me, I know this answer is coming like 3 years later but maybe you see it. Maybe it is a type of paraphilias I have been looking for the answer for years and well no one has really done a study on that specific topic, maybe because it's complicating to explain or the countless variations among people like me and you or maybe could just be simplified down to a fascination of bruises. Like the difference between me and you is you won't inflict it, I on the other hand while I wait for a bruise or my partner has one I love to poke at it or have mine hurt again to keep the bruises fora longer time or feel the pain, but once again it's not sexual so it's all just a huge mess. I hoped this helped to also learn that there are other people who classify the same way
