You may be able to alleviate it by shifting your holster position a little.... like 1/2"-1" forward or back.

When I shifted my holster rearward an inch- so that the gun is just behind the point of the bone, it made a world of difference.

The fact that you have bruising suggests that you are either leaning to relieve pressure or sitting against chair arms or something... try to pay attention to how you sitting and moving in and out of the chairs.

No, the bruising is on the opposite side of my waist from the holster. I have a large red mark and subtle bruise basically 180deg from the holster. Caused by the pants/belt pressing against my hipbone and bruising the skin.

Yes, I got that- it sounds like your belt is too tight and its causing you to lean to compensate for the gun.

Or if you are a little overweight and not used to sitting a lot while carrying- the belt can do that easily. (ask me how I know)
