bruises on my legs?


Question Posted Sunday June 3 2007, 7:22 pm

first of all i get bruises on my legs for no apparent reason.

but there's like one on my knee that's kinda dark, but doesn't actually hurt.

the only question i have is, is there any way to make the bruises go away/heal faster?

like, an ointment, cream, or homemade remedy?

Did you ever go to a doctor for them? I think you should go to one because my mom had some on her legs and when she went to get it checked it was some sort of skin rash or something. You should get it checked because it can be diabetes, allergic reaction, rash or disease.

You could probably use something like cortizone to get it to heal faster if you don't want to go to the doctor.

If you're prone to bruising, basic first-aid treatment can help you heal. Apply an ice pack, wrapped in a towel, on and off for the first 24 hours, followed by warm compresses the next day. If you really want to give bruises the old heave-ho and make yourself less "bruisable" in the future, however, the mineral zinc and a dollop of cream fortified with vitamin C or Vitamin K are the way to go. For extra protection, boost your dietary intake of these nutrients as well.

And there are 3 thinngs you can do to help it go faster.

You can apply ice in a bag or an ice pak wrapped in a towell for 10 mins.
and you can apply a gel called Arnika Gel and it's comparatively cheap in most drugstores.
And the good old Fruits and vegetables help too!
honest

Hope I helped and I hope it was worth the long answer and that you get what you want
