Preparation tools: ice cubes and vinegar
1. Apply an ice pack to the bruise. For the first few days after the abrasion, use an ice pack 15 minutes every few hours every day. Freezing can reduce inflammation and swelling, and help bruises recover quickly.
2. Lift the scraped part. If the bruise is located where you can lift it, such as limbs, you can lift it above your heart to reduce the blood flow of the bruise. This can reduce swelling, let blood flow back, and prevent excessive blood from flowing to the bruise, which will aggravate the bruise. It is most effective to raise this part immediately after bruising.
3. Gently massage the bruises. Gently massage the bruised peripheral parts with your thumb. Don't press hard or try to massage the bruised center, it will hurt you. Be sure to massage in circles. Doing so can promote lymphatic function and help the body naturally drain silt.
4. Let the scraped part touch the sunlight. If the bruised part can be exposed to sunlight directly for 10 to 15 minutes every day, ultraviolet rays will begin to decompose bilirubin, which is a substance that turns the bruise yellow. Exposure to the sun will help speed up this process and make your bruises dissipate faster.
5. Rub the bruises with vinegar and water. Mix vinegar with warm water, and then rub it on the bruise. Vinegar can promote the blood circulation on the skin surface and make the bruises recover faster.
6. Bruising can recover quickly. If the situation is serious, please contact the doctor for help in time.
