A member asked:
I fell 2 weeks ago & badly bruised my leg above my ankle. it still hurts, is red & a bit swollen & has a slight bump. will it heal on its own?

Heat should help.: The bruise color should be about green or yellow now. That is good. The pain should be going down. That is good. At this point I would apply heat. A wet towel warmed up in a microwave would do fine. If things don't improve after the heat then seek professional advice.
