Re: Bruising - any help for it?

Question to ask yourself:
Do you bruise more easily at certain times of the month? Myself and a mate of mine both find this to be true (sorry everyone else too much detail).

It takes a serious whacking before I get a bruise otherwise!

If you don't get enough vitamin C you bruise easily. Not sure if that's an old wives tale though.

You do toughen up over time, so it should be getting better.

As for fixing the bruises lasonil (over the counter at pharmacists) works a treat. As does witch hazel for superficial bruising.

Hope this helps.
