Yes. Believe it or not, it is possible to bruise your eyeball. Rubbing your eyes too much or even poking your eye with your finger on accident can cause a bruise. However, this bruise is not visible. If it is not accompanied by other symptoms then it is most likely a bruise. Please be sure to visit your physician if the pain persists, or if the pain is accompanied by other symptoms.

Every bruise results in minor bleeding and a small blood clot. A blood clot is the body's natural way to stop bleeding and heal the site. If you mean cause a dangerous clot, a bruise is not in a vein. It is more a superficial injury. The only way a clot is dangerous is if it can travel to the heart or brain. Bruises don't cause clots that will travel.

A small bit of force on the tissue can cause a bruise. For example, a girl has long hair. While brushing her hair, the hairbrush accidentally slips and hits her eye. Later, it turned into a bruise. A guy was putting on a pull over sweater. He smacks himself in the eye. Later, he has a bruise. A mom is holding her baby. The infant is holding a rattle.

What is the question? A 'contusion" is the technical/medical term for a bruise.

Stop taking caffeine in coffee, soda, and chocolate. This has helped me reduce the frequency of lumps in my armpit. Now, I get lumps only when I treat myself to chocolate (I go caffeine free with soda and coffee). I can actually plan for a lump if I ingest caffeine. Nonetheless, you need to have it checked out by a doctor, because it could be related to lymph nodes or even breast tissue problems. If the lumps come and go, caffeine and check-ups may be all you need to control the problem. If the lump is constant, see a doctor immediately. Good luck.

A bruise (also known as a contusion) usually last about 2 weeks. You can determine the age of a bruise by the color of it. It usually is:

day 1-5 the bruise appears black or blue

day 5-10 the bruise is lighter and more or less green or dark yellow

day 10-14 the bruise turns yellow and then fades completely

Not necessarily. A bruise may occur from what you thought was only a small bump, or when you are so busy doing something (especially in sports) that you don't notice the injury until a bruise actually forms. However, if you are prone to getting these bruises and particularly if there is a family history of haemophilia and other like diseases, you should consult a doctor, just in case.
