Ice pack
Apply ice immediately after an injury to reduce blood flow to the area. Cooling the blood vessels can reduce the amount of blood that seeps into surrounding tissues, preventing bruising and reducing swelling.
Do not apply ice directly to open wounds, as this can cause frostbite and irritation. Wrap a small ice cube in a towel and gently rub it on the wound.
Heat
Use a heating pad, hot water bottle, or soak in a hot bath to increase circulation, which helps to dissolve blood after a bruise has formed. Heat also loosens tense muscles and reduces pain.
Bandage
Wrap the bruised area in an elastic bandage to compress the tissue and prevent blood from leaking. The bandage also reduces the severity of the bruise and reduces pain and swelling.
Eat pineapple
Bromelain is a mixture of enzymes found in pineapples. Bromelain may help reduce the severity of bruising and inflammation. You can eat pineapple or take bromelain supplements.
Vitamin C
Vitamin C has anti-inflammatory, wound healing properties.
