== == * If you leave it alone it should heal on it's own. Also, icing the bruise will help keep swelling down. Take pain relievers to ease pain. == == * Whenever I get a a bruise I ice it immediately or as soon as possible and then I use rubbing alcohol to remove the purplelish-bluish color. * The best thing I have ever found to take the bruise away is toothpaste. For some reason toothpaste will draw out a bruise, take the color away and help with the pain. It works on Hickys too. If you put toothpaste on a hicky overnight it will be gone in the morning. * I tend to get small bruises quite often. Once in a while I will get large bruises that are an eyesore. Applying ice compresses is a good idea. * I bruise easily and use homeopathic Arnica cream which helps reduce swelling. * Homeopathic Arnica tablet taken orally or Arnica cream applied locally to the bruised area is excellent for reducing bruising and swelling after an injury or surgical procedure. Arnica works equally well for animals. It works so well that in the UK and India (for example) many surgeons give Arnica before and after surgery. Arnica as a homeopathic remedy can be purchased from any good health store.
