I have a large, very dark bruise that is really very unattractive and ugly. What can I do to lessen it and make it fade quickly? Thank you.

BRUISES:
Slice a raw onion and place it over the bruised area, but do not place it over broken skin.
A comfrey poultice can be applied to a bruise and it will heal fast.
Use arnica cream on bruises.
Use the homeopathic remedy called Arnica Montana to heal bruises.
Hold a piece of raw steak on a black eye for about 20 minutes to reduce bruising and swelling.
Place a banana peeling over the bruise with the inside of it touching the bruised area.
Hold an onion slice on a bruise for a few minutes to help heal the bruise.

I would equally abide with fellow members here on Arnica.
However, also try ice in the evenings and use makeup to hide it until in scars and disappears.
Get well soon and the next time, immediately put ice on the bruise within seconds...it avoids those awful marks!

There is nothing you can do that will make it go away any faster-its a blood clot that is breaking up and being carried slowly away in the blood stream. If you do bruise easily, you may want to consult your Dr.
