Just put ice on it and it should go away, other than that, it stays for a couple of days.

My Mother always says to use a brush or comb and brush the bruise, apperently this disperses the blood allowing it to heal faster. I use it on bruises and hickeys and such and it works. hope this helps.

You can't remove a hickey, which is actually a bruise...only time can make it go away.  A bruise is blood that has leaked into the tissues and it has to be absorbed.  Now you can speed the absorption buy applying some heat a few times a day but, in the end, it will require time.\n\nYou can cover it with a makeup called dermablend which is designed to cover birthmarks.  It is pricey but hides even the most severe of birthmarks (port wine stain) so will easily cover a bruise.

apply ice to it, no longer then 15 mintues and make sure its not direct. then wrap it with an ace bandage

I had that crap.  You have to use an antifungal creme on the area, keep it clean, wash your hands if you so much as think about touching.  It can take weeks to get rid of that blasted "bulls eye" mark.  Any antifungal will do.  I also used cortizone to reduce the swelling.  \n\nPatty "I feel your pain" Surrey

I would recommend Arnica.\nIts a salve used for bruising and sprains which has anti-inflammatory properties. You should be able to pick it up at health food shops or some pharmacies.

Unless it punctured or scratch your finger with an open laceration. You disinfect it with warm water and soap. And an antibiotic ointment should help. But if it's just a bruise don't worry it will go away in about three days.\nHow's the crab though? What a sweet revenge, ha?

a bruised bone takes a while to heal.  i really don't know anything that will healing up.  but as far as it not coming back, don't do what caused it to bruise in the first place, or find a way that it dosen't cause trauma to the bones.

Nothing to worry about-its happened to me a few time.You probably did bruise/scratch yourself at work.Put some neosporin on it and unless it gets infected just forget about it.

massage and ice the bruised area.  that helps the blood circulation, which will help the bruise heal.  i get enough bruises from the dojo and massage and ice packs are my best friend.

Immediately after you bump something hard enough to cause a bruise, and for the first day or two after you get one, you should apply cold compresses to prevent swelling. After that, try applying warm compresses to help the absorption of blood. People who get bruises frequently may have vitamin deficiencies, including C, E, K and zinc. Try taking supplements if you get bruises often.  Some studies have shown that applying a cream containing vitamin K can help fade a bruise. Bruises normally take about 2 weeks to fade completely. Just wait, and wear longer sleeves if it bothers you.

Use ice to cool it down and stop the bleeding. As long as it's inflamed it will bleed.

heat up some olive oil, not too hot, in the microwave. then take a damp cloth and rub it for like 5 mins, it helps a lot and goes away quicker

i also had this problem in high school. i constantly had bruises on my chins and had no clue how i was getting them. after a friend observed my behavior, i realized i had a habbit of sitting with my legs tucked under me, causing my chins to rub the edge of the seats. after consulting my physician, he recommended a multivitamin and also a B12 vitamin (for energy, not necessarily for bruising). he, too, said a lack of iron is the most common cause. it doesn't mean you are sickly or should worry; just add a vitamin to your regime and you should be as good as new!

Make sure you apply pressure for like 15 minutes to stop bleeding (if any). And wash cut with soap and water *don't use alcohal, it will make it worse. Pat dry. I know this sounds wierd, but I've heard this and tried this before, sprinkle powdered cinnimon lightly on cut and use a bandaid-really works to heal fast (I work in a restaurant so I need cuts to heal fast). Try not to mess with it either, you don't want an infection.Good Luck! *tip-make sure you do let the cut air dry too, your skin needs to breath in order to heal*
