"Quick Tips to Heal Bruises Fast"

Bruises, or contusions, occur when small blood vessels break and blood leaks into surrounding tissues, causing discoloration. While most bruises are harmless and heal on their own within a few days to two weeks, larger hematomas may require medical attention. To speed up healing, cold compresses, elevation, and later warm compresses can be used. Over-the-counter pain relievers and creams may help with pain and swelling, but there's limited evidence they accelerate healing. Avoid re-injury and keep the bruise out of direct sunlight for best results.
