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.

瘀伤是皮肤上的一块深色印记。它可能是蓝色、紫色或绿色的。当某人撞到手臂、腿或身体其他部位时，就会产生瘀伤。可能因摔倒或撞到东西而发生。任何人都可能得到瘀伤。

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.

瘀伤在触摸时可能会痛，但有时不是很痛。皮肤没有割破，外面也没有血。血液留在皮肤下，这就是为什么颜色会改变。

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.

瘀伤通常会在几天内好转。每天颜色可能会改变。可能先看起来是紫色，然后是绿色，然后是黄色。当颜色消失时，瘀伤就愈合了。

瘀伤
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.

处理瘀伤有简单的方法。人们可以让受伤部位休息。他们也可以放些冷的东西在上面，比如用布包着的冰块。这有助于瘀伤好转。

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.

人们应该对瘀伤轻柔。不应用力按压。如果瘀伤在腿部或手臂，将腿或手臂抬起一会儿可能会有帮助。

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.

大多数瘀伤并不严重。它们会自行消失。如果瘀伤很大、很痛或没有好转，应该告诉医生。

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.

淤青很常见。任何人都可能发生。通过休息和护理，淤青会消退，皮肤会恢复正常。
