Boiron Arnicare Bruise Relief Review

Press Sample (Affiliate Links)

My mom used Arnica gel or oil on us when we were kids the second that we bumped into something hard enough to leave a bruise. Therefore, as an adult this tried and true way to avoid unsightly bruising has been a normal part of my life. Arnica gel or oil is an essential item in my medicine cabinet, and just this weekend I had the need to use it. I was removing a dead tree stump in my backyard when my tool slipped a bit and hit my foot. While it didn't cause any bleeding, it really did hurt, and before I knew it, it was red and beginning to swell. I rubbed in Boiron Arnicare Bruise, which is a fast-absorbing and residue-free gel, and then iced my foot. The ice and elevation of my foot brought the swelling down quickly, but the Arnica Bruise prevented the formation of what would have been one mighty bruise. I imagine that I would have an unsightly purple bruise if I hadn't treated my foot immediately.

According to Boiron,

Boiron Arnicare Bruise gel spot treats discoloration, swelling, and pain from tender and unsightly black- and-blue marks.* This homeopathic medicine is made from a mountain daisy. It’s a simple solution for those who bruise easily or often, including women, active adults and children, seniors, users of certain medications, and patients recovering from surgery
