This may be an odd question, but I'll ask anyway, I was hangin out with friends and I was running through the house and hit my arm on the banister, now I have a huge bruise that has gone from purplish to greenish, to many other colors.
But my question is, is there any way to make the bruise not hurt that much, or to make it go away faster, because it's on the upper part of my arm but right near my elbow, so whenever I bend my arm it kind of hurts, so any suggestions? Or is there nothing I can do?
sunshine1232 answered Wednesday July 6 2005, 5:54 pm: try putting ice on it wrap the ice in a towel or rag and put it on your arm where it hurts that should cool it down but don't leave it on too long or your arm will start to get numb try to rest it and try not to bend it it is just a bruise it may hurt for a few days and then it will get better it's normal for it to change colors and the best thing you could do right now is put ice on it and try not to move it around so much.
i broke my toe twice and it changed colors. [ sunshine1232's advice column | Ask sunshine1232 A Question ]

I don't know, there isn't much to do. A bruise isn't like a cut where you can put a bandaid and cream on it, a bruise is kind of like a cut/rupture/internal bleeding under your skin, so there is no way of fixing it.
