How to prevent or reduce the darkness of bruises?
I am fair skinned and bruise easily and have one on my leg that is purplish-black and would like to know if there could be a lotion or other way to reduce the darkness of bruises? Also prevention since I thought maybe eatting a certain diet or taking vitamins would reduce getting bruises.
Thank you ![]()
You may want to increase your iron intake, as you may be anemic. You can become anemic at any time in your life, and it can be treated successfully. I would visit a doctor, or even an RN/Nurse Practitioner.
How to cover up bruises on your face?
So I got hit with a freezer door at work night before last and now I have 3 bruises on my face and a swollen/black eye.
How can I make the bruises and the eye less noticeable?
-Thanks!
Do NOT, under any circumstances, use a yellow concealer on blue. Yellow DOES NOT "cancel out" the blue. All it will do is make the blue look green. If you want to get rid of bruises (or even dark circles under eyes) use a salmon colored concealer. The salmon color is more of a natural color and will cancel out any blues. Take a look at a color wheel showing the colors of a color spectrum. Blue is opposite of orange, not yellow. Also, make sure the concealer is one to two shades lighter than your foundation.
What's good makeup brand for hiding bruises after surgery?
I just had all of my wisdom teeth out 6 days ago, and I have huge bruises on both sides of my jaw. I work with the public and have gotten some pretty worried looks. I'm kinda pale, so I use a light foundation, and it doesn't cover the bruises very well. I'm using Physician's Formula and have been looking for a different brand anyway. Any suggestions?
benefit makes great products that can work for covering up just about anything.
What causes the pain associated with 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.
What are bruises I cant explain a symptom of?
In the last 3 weeks, and before in the past I get (3 in the last 3 weeks) bruises I cannot explain. They range from a purple line on my thigh, like someone traces my veins with a marker, to a dollar coin size bruise on my lower left abdome. I dont bump into stuff, and i dont bruise easily normally, and i cannot explain this, what can this be a symptom of?
added details: i dont bruise easily, and I just feel bad in general. im nauseaus, dropped some weight with no effort whioch for me is UNUSUAL. I am tired alot.
Check with your MD. you may need to have blood work done..
or you could be hitting and bumping yourself and not even be aware you are doing it.
How long does it take for bruises to show up?
I was just wondering, how long does it usually take for bruises to show up? After the hit that would cause it.
Also, what spots of the body bruise easier then others? Is it possible to bruise a bone?
And finally, what will a bruise look like at first? Will it look red? Or instantly go blue/black or purple or w/e?
Thanks.
it depends on how bad it got hit if it got hit hard only like 1 or 2 mins but it might not even bruise at all if it hasn’t by 5 mins
the shins elbows knees anything that’s closer to the bone but again it depends on how hard yes the bone can bruise my sister was put on crutches for a bad bruise on the bone before
it will look faded blue or Grey and if it was hit hard black and blue it may start out red to
