How Can I Treat Bruising?
Top Selling Bruising Products (least expensive to most expensive):
Bruising is caused when red blood cells go outside the normal
circulatory channels (broken capillaries and veins).Bruising can be seen
after trauma, scratching, scleroltherapy (injection of leg veins to
treat spider veins), laser treatments and other surgical procedures.
Also as people age the normal fat pad that protects the blood vessels on
the arms and hands becomes depleated and broken blood vessels with
bruising is more likely. Many people are also on blood thinning
medications (aspirin, coumadin, nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory agents,
and high dose Vitamin E) that makes bruising easier.
Treatment: Vitamin K
Creams have been shown to be helpful for bruises, purpura (red blood
cells under the skin), rosacea, and dark circles under the eyes. A
healthy diet, vitamin C, and the avoidance of smoking also will help the
skin to repair itself with less bruising. Hiruval 35 is used to
avoid bruising after scleroltherapy.
All products should be used as directed on the product container. Any
product that causes irritation should be discontinued. The information
