Oh no!! Do the ice, on 20 minutes, off for a couple of hours or as needed.
HUGS!!

Is it too late to use ice? I did use ice Friday nite, but slacked off on Saturday (even though doctor said to continue on Saturday). I'm thinking now that it's been 36 hours or so, ice won't help anymore.....

Had cancer surgery on my face a couple years ago.

When the area doesn't hurt, start massaging the discolored area. Will help a little. To be honest, I looked like I'd been a bar brawl for about a month...but that was surgery and deep tissue aggravation. you will be ok.

Oh...go to Merle Norman...they have an undercover makeup that is GREEN that will off set any redness. They can do a demo so you can see how it works. It's so cool!

Sorry about your accident. I know it must just tick you off.

I am so sorry you fell. That isn't pleasant to have bruises and scrapes and even worse a cut that needed stitches.. Sending (((HUGS))).

Sorry to hear of your accident. Wishing you a speedy recovery ! The bruising will take a while to go away, hang in there!

Hmmm.... Sipping a little wine. I'd go for the chocolate big time, but it gives me a headache. Actually, wine gives me a headache too but it's easier for me to control intake and has a little more bang for the risk!
