I use this on my daughters bruises, she is 3 and bangs up her knees and shins playing...it seems the arnica makes the bruises worse looking. Does arnica just speed up the bruising/healing process, so they look worse sooner...and then heal sooner?How does topical arnica cream/gel work?
Hi Joe, Yes arnica balm or ointment can be used as cream or a compress for the affected area, it's a very good treatment.
You also can use five drops of thyme oil diluted either in bathwater or some other oil can be used as a compress to get rid of swelling or horse chestnut is also very useful for such injuries. Due to its anti-inflammatory properties and presence of a compound called aescin it becomes beneficial for all kinds of injuries. You can spread this gel on the affected area every two hours till the pain subsides.

It does speed up the healing process.
Arnica has no measurable effects at all. There is no difference between treated bruises and non-treated bruises. It's just a waste of your money and time.
its the best thing out there :)
