What causes the pain associated with bruises?

Filed under: bruises 

I know that bruises are just from busted blood vessels under the skin but why does it hurt?

Swelling which causes pressure on the nerves. That's why some bruses cause a lump.

  2. The nerve ending. You have nerve ends running throughout your body. The nerves send a message to your brain that there is damaged tissue. Your brain then tells you Ouch!!!!!
