Bruises

Bruises happen all the time. They happen when we have small bleeds under the skin but the skin doesn’t break, so the blood is trapped under the skin. They can be unsightly. Lots of things can make you easier to bruise - sun damage, age, chronic diseases, medicines, not enough Vitamin C or Vitamin K, etc. Learn how to deal with bruises with over-the-counter options.
