How long a bruise lasts can vary greatly depending on the location and severity of the trauma that caused the bruise and the health, age, and idiosyncrasies of the individual bruised. Having said that, the majority of bruises for most people will last from 1 to 4 weeks, although severe bruising can last for months.
