Natural Remedies for Bruising Easily


 
Health

Bruising easily simply can be the result of weak blood vessel walls. However, there are other factors, such as difficulties with blood clotting involving insufficient platelets, blood thinning induced by aging and synthetic steroids. Contusions or bruises show discolorations of the skin surface. The discolorations under the skin develop because of a torn arterial or capillary blood vessel. It is not uncommon for a person to bruise; however, some people get contusions from just minor abrasions.

Contusions or bruises are a part of the body’s response to breaking down and blood re-absorption. The color changes are a normal part of the process. In the first few days, a bruise can present a red, blue, purple or black hue. By the end of one week, it may appear a green to yellowish pigment. During a two-week span, the contusion may fade to brown and eventually clear all together. Individuals most susceptible to bruising are the elderly, women of all ages, and people who use blood-thinning drugs, such as ginkgo biloba and fish oil.

In mainstream medicine, the most general practice is to use anticoagulant drugs to thin the blood. Heparin and warfarin also called Coumadin are helpful, but they manage to increase bruising with long-term practice. A doctor will routinely monitor the usage and response to these forms of blood-thinning medications. There are natural remedies, such as policosanol, ginkgo, garlic, and high-dose vitamin E, which are noteworthy to thin the blood, hence causing a higher risk of developing contusions and blood-clotting disorders. In respect to substances that prevent blood from clotting, it is unwise to combine two or more blood-thinning substances together. This avoids risk of extensive bleeding from even the smallest injury.

There is no identifiable medical condition that is linkable to ordinary bruising. There is no curative measure for bruising and a mere bruise will resolve with time.

Are There Natural Remedies for Bruising Easily?

Bilberry and vitamin C are among the many natural substances available to prevent excessive blood thinning. Bilberry contains elements called anthocyanosides, which are notable to strengthen capillaries. In Europe, some doctors encourage the use of bilberry for the treatment of bruising. Vitamin C demonstrates the ability to fortify collagen. Moreover, in incidences of vitamin C deficiency or scurvy, Vitamin C supplementation proves to be an effective means to reverse the condition.

Widely employed, comfrey, arnica, and sweet clover represent herbal plants are widely employed herbal plants that resolve the appearance of bruises and other minor injuries. There are some safety concerns to consider when using these herbal plants internally. It is better to uses these varieties of herbal plants in a topical preparation or balm.

Despite the fact that bruises are just a short-lived nuisance, they can be an indication associated with a much larger issue in the body. A deep contusion affecting the muscle and bone is critical enough to require medical attention.
