It usually goes away on its own but you should put ice on it, a cold spoon. Use makeup or concealer to cover in the meanwhile.

a day or 2\n\nbut you can help avoid that when they put a piece of cotton on it, and say hold this, while they get a bandaid ready ... they told me once to hold it on there tightly, helps not bruise as much, always seems to work.

A bruise IS actually broken blood vessels under your skin...I'm sure you just had the bad luck of hitting the area right where the little blood vessel is that was just healing from your recent IV.   I would keep an eye on it --the bruised looking area should NOT keep getting larger now, if it does-you should probably have it looked at.  But if it's not "growing" --you could put a little ice pack on it to see if that helps the pain.  \n            Hope you heal quickly!

They can't be removed by toothpaste, combing, ice, or any of the other popular mythical methods. Hickeys are just bruises and will take about 3-7 days to disappear completely. Try wearing a scarf around your neck or a high necked shirt to cover, or choose a highly pigmented concealer and some matching powder that match your skintone to conceal them.

Try using hydrogen peroxide on it. \n\nI helped rescue a guy out of a burning car a few weeks ago, and he got blood all over my shirt and jacket. When I got home that night, I put some H2O2 on it and it took care of it immediately. So, it even works on dried blood!!\n\nNifty, huh?

Believe it or not, even in med school, they tell you to urinate on the sting if nothing else is available. Vinegar will also help neutralize the sting.\n\nAfter that, Benedryl and applying ice to the area will help with the inflammation. \n\nI commend you for thinking of putting together a first aide kit for your outing. Most people wait until after something happens before they even think about putting together a kit!

Hydrogen peroxide will do the trick! Use a Q-tip and dab it on to remove the majority of blood. Cold water works well too. And last but not least, wash it as usual, not throwing it into the dryer until the spot is gone (may need to wash 2x).

Use salt, it doesn't go away as fast.  Just poor some in your hands and rub it on your wet skin.

Most bruises and cuts take only about a week or 2 to fully heal up from an average person. The process will take longer if you happen to lack any iron in your blood as well as being diabetic (as the inability for your wounds to heal is a symptom due to the excess sugar in your blood cells). If the latter is the case, you need to see the doctor for diagnosis and proper treatment.
