Everyone has been in a situation where they accidentally fell and hit. In almost all cases, a blue spot appeared on the part of the body where the main blow fell, which, as it heals, brightens and changes its color to yellow. Most people wait for this characteristic spot to disappear on its own. But what if the yellow bruise appeared in the most visible place, which you can’t hide under clothes?
Ochrete hematomas
Characteristic bruises of yellow color appear at the site of a bruise, within which blood vessels have burst, releasing their contents under a layer of skin. When the blood is outside such familiar walls, the process of splitting hemoglobin begins, which is responsible for the color of the bruised area. At first it is purple, with a slight blue tint, then it turns into a yellow-green color and gradually, approaching the moment of healing, it becomes yellow-brown.
Among the most common causes of bruising are:
- Vitamin C deficiency.
- Memory accidentally erased the episode when a person fell or hit, considering it not soimportant.
- Pathologies in the work of the endocrine organs or in their interaction with the central nervous system are fraught with sudden bruising.
- Hypertension, tonsillitis, rheumatism and kidney disease, as well as pathologies in the circulatory system, make themselves felt as colored spots all over the body.
Bruising after injections
Reason for appearance:
- Error in the process of choosing the injection site. For example, you need to make an injection on the upper part of the right buttock. Experienced doctors advise mentally dividing the buttock into four areas and injecting it into the area you need at the moment. If the user of the syringe made a mistake and hit another muscle part, sending the medicine to less elastic tissues, then there is a high probability that a bruise will appear in this place.
- The injection did not have enough depth for a full impact. All gluteal muscles are located under an impressive layer of subcutaneous fat. If the syringe is not inserted to the full length of the needle, then the medicine is one hundred percent likely to enter the fatty area, causing bruising.
- I got a viral infection. If, along with an injection, foreign bacteria enter the body, they will provoke the onset of a subcutaneous inflammatory process. In turn, it forms spots on the body that resemble multi-colored hematomas.
- Pricked a very tense muscle. Under such influence, an abundant blood supply begins at the injection site, which can enter the fatty tissue. And already the blood that has got into the wrong place provokes the appearance of bruises.
When there are no special reasons
It happens that characteristic hematomas appear on the body, and a person cannot remember the reason responsible for their formation. In this case, a special method will help, starting from the place where they appeared:
- Face and eyelids - more common in women whose body has entered the menopause phase. As a result of a lack of estrogen, a hormonal imbalance begins, tearing blood vessels and causing sudden bruising.
- Legs - due to beriberi, vessels in this part of the body are too fragile.
- Stomach - an urgent need to check the internal organs for hidden pathologies.
- Vins are a striking feature of varicose veins.
- Breast - in some cases signal the onset of cancer.
Methods to quickly get rid of bruises
Fast-acting remedies for yellowish spots include medical ointments: Hepatrombin gel, Fastum gel, Troxevasin, Indovasin and so on.
If hematomas appeared without the influence of a bruise, more useful methods can be used. Include more egg yolks, fish oil, and green foods like broccoli or spinach in your daily diet. They contain a lot of potassium, without which normal blood clotting is impossible. For additional influence at the site of the hematoma, regular compresses can be made, consisting of potatoes boiled in their uniforms, honey and soda. This mixture is stirred until the consistency of a homogeneous slurry and periodically lubricatedbruises.
Onion lovers can use another recipe. It is necessary to clean and boil one onion, make a gruel out of it, add dried plantain leaves, powdered into powder, honey and mix until a thick mass without lumps. Before use, this gruel is heated in a water bath and rubbed on bruises three times a day, moving along with a kind of compress for at least two hours.
Tincture of calendula flowers helps just as well. It is bought at a pharmacy or prepared independently. For this purpose, 20 grams of herbs are poured into 100 ml of alcohol infusion and infused in a dark place for 14 days. The finished tincture is filtered and compresses and lotions are prepared from it for sore spots.
If a person wants to reduce yellow bruises, then he can use aloe leaves or a mixture consisting of soy flour, which is attached to the surface of the hematoma. In some cases, they can be replaced with garlic: pour 2 heads with vinegar for a day. If you rub hematomas with this infusion at least a couple of times a day, you can achieve impressive results.
