Bruise

Read about bruises in simple English to learn what they are, how they heal, and how to take care of them safely.

1.1

A bruise is a dark mark on the skin. It can be blue, purple, or green. A bruise happens when someone hits their arm, leg, or another part of the body. It can happen from falling, or bumping into something. Anyone can get a bruise.

Ang pasa ay isang madilim na marka sa balat. Maaari itong maging asul, lila, o berde. Ang pasa ay nangyayari kapag may tumama sa braso, binti, o ibang bahagi ng katawan. Ito ay maaaring mangyari dahil sa pagkahulog o pagbangga sa isang bagay. Kahit sino ay maaaring magkaroon ng pasa.

1.2

A bruise can hurt when you touch it, but sometimes it does not hurt much. The skin is not cut, and there is no blood on the outside. The blood stays under the skin, and that is why the color changes.

Ang pasa ay maaaring sumakit kapag hinawakan mo, ngunit kung minsan ay hindi gaanong masakit. Ang balat ay hindi hiwa, at walang dugo sa labas. Ang dugo ay nananatili sa ilalim ng balat, at iyon ang dahilan kung bakit nagbabago ang kulay.

1.3

A bruise usually gets better in a few days. Each day, the color may change. It may look purple first, then green, then yellow. When the color goes away, the bruise is healed.

Ang pasa ay kadalasang gumagaling sa loob ng ilang araw. Araw-araw, maaaring magbago ang kulay. Maaaring mukha itong lila sa una, pagkatapos ay berde, pagkatapos ay dilaw. Kapag nawala ang kulay, gumaling na ang pasa.

Pasa
1.4

There are simple ways to take care of a bruise. People can rest the hurt area. They can also put something cold on it, like ice wrapped in a cloth. This helps the bruise feel better.

May mga simpleng paraan para alagaan ang pasa. Maaaring ipahinga ang nasaktang bahagi. Maaari rin nilang lagyan ng malamig na bagay, tulad ng yelo na nakabalot sa tela. Nakakatulong ito para bumuti ang pakiramdam ng pasa.

1.5

People should be gentle with the bruise. They should not press it hard. If the bruise is on the leg or arm, it may help to keep the leg or arm up for a short time.

Ang mga tao ay dapat maging banayad sa pasa. Hindi nila ito dapat pindutin nang malakas. Kung ang pasa ay nasa binti o braso, maaaring makatulong na itaas ang binti o braso nang maikling panahon.

1.6

Most bruises are not serious. They go away on their own. If a bruise is very big, very painful, or does not get better, a person should tell a doctor.

Karamihan sa mga pasa ay hindi seryoso. Nawawala ang mga ito nang kusa. Kung ang isang pasa ay napakalaki, napakasakit, o hindi gumagaling, dapat sabihin ng isang tao sa doktor.

1.7

A bruise is common. It can happen to anyone. With rest and care, the bruise will fade and the skin will look normal again.

Karaniwan ang pasa. Maaari itong mangyari sa sinuman. Sa pahinga at pag-aalaga, mawawala ang pasa at babalik sa normal ang balat.
