Question:

How Long Will It Take My Bruises To Heal?

I was in a car accident where the airbag hit me in the face. My nose was the worst injury.The hospital believes that I have a hairline fracture at the very worst, but they didn't bother taking an X-Ray, because the bleeding stopped quickly, and after some aspirin, I was fine. On hospital records, they wrote that it was just blunt trauma to the nose, and not a hairline fracture. Anyway, I have two black eyes, which have cleared up significantly already after taking aspirin, ice (and ice mask at night), heat, and a warm wash cloth while massaging the area to disperse blood. The bruise is a very faint blue-purple, which is just barely noticeable in digital pictures I took today. I just started using arnica cream, so I'm waiting to see how well that works. How long will my bruise take to heal? Is it possible for it to clear up as soon as Sunday or Tuesday?


Answers:

arnica is very good. also try peeling an onion and placing it on you skin for a about 30-60 minutes each day. (even twice a day is fine) onions are known to speed up healing and bruises.
