A Good Remedy For Bruises
Bruises are frequently the result of a blow or pressure. Many daily tasks include contact with hard surfaces, so you might get wounded without realizing it. Using an ice pack is often suggested since it reduces the probability of edema.
Other times, the bruises are left to finish their course, which in most situations might take up to two weeks. The menthol in VapoRub has a cooling effect similar to that of an ice pack. It decreases edema and discoloration.
