Kids get injured often and seem to recover quickly.

How well do you recover from bumps and bruises these days?
 
Pretty quick still. But I can feel those long-term pains more and more as age sets in lol.
 
It often amazes me when my kids injure themselves at just how quickly they heal from it. I myself bump myself and get a bruise and it can seem like the bruise and the pain lasts forever the more I get older. I know when I fell and injured my ankle pretty badly I was down and out with it for quite a few weeks whereas my kids seem to bounce back after a week or so.
 
The older you get, the longer your bruises will remain, no matter how clean your diet is. I remember my husband's grandmother telling me how her bruises are there to stay and I've noticed that when I get bruised on my legs, they're there for months at a time.
 
I recover a lot slower than I used to, thats for sure!

It takes me forever to heal when I get hurt and I take vitamins every day. I don't know what the issue is. 🤷‍♂️
 
We just need to have the conventional way of treatment. You can apply the affected part with ice for two days. Then, you can have hot compression after 48 hours.
