You can get a gel at most drug stores called Arnica Gel. Massage the gel onto the bruise, when massaging the bruise, try to massage down. For example, if you have a bruise on your thigh, massage in a downward motion towards your feet. The results won't be instant but over the next few days, it will lessen in color and get smaller.

Hope this helps you
