Put some ice on it immediately. Then you need to go to the pharmasist and get some Witch Hazel. If you want to cover it with make up apply some green eyeshadow on top of it which will neutralise it. Enjoy prom.

The only thing you can do now is cover it up with make up use a light concealer then cover with powder as the bruise will still be there i have had a bruised ankle for over 2 weeks now. I use arnica cream or gel on it it brings the bruising out more and speeds up the healing process. And put some ice on it if it is painful.
put ice on it immediatly!
bruise....
Ice is good..Vit b12 helps healing
As last resort..for prom..use makeup to cover it...

Bruises are caused by broken blood vessels usually from a fall, bump or a strike to the area of the body. Bruises can turn purple, red, green and yellow and be an ugly, if not embarrassing, sight when you are wearing shorts, short sleeves or a bathing suit. If you bruise at the ever so slightly bump, these steps will help prevent and ease those painful and colorful bruises. To prevent a bruise from ever surfacing try using some arnica cream. Spread the cream over whatever body part that gets hit or bumped immediately after the incident. If you tend to bruise very easily and the slightest touches cause bruises, you may want apply a small amount of the cream just in case you come in contact with something throughout the day.

Arnica cream not only prevents bruises but also can ease the pain of bruises and heal it quickly. Spread the cream several times a day on the area that is bruised but don’t use it if the skin is broken. Arnica is great for external use but poisonous internally. Bromelain, a protein enzyme that helps break food down and is found in pineapples, is just not good for digesting it also may help to break down fibrin, which is a substance produced in the body after you bruise yourself that contributes to the swelling and inflammation. Bromelain helps to minimize the bruising by helping to digest the proteins that trigger swelling and pain in the body. You will need to buy Bromelain supplements in tablet or capsule form, which you can get at any nutritional store. Take 250-500 mg between meals until the bruise heals.

Bruised or not, I hope you have a great time!!! From associatedcontent
