Arnica Montana, the scientific name of the Arnica plant, has been used widely for over centuries to heal bruises, wounds and reduce pain and swelling. It is known to have anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, and analgesic properties.
How does arnica work for bruising?
Arnica can promote increased circulation and blood flow to the bruised area. It helps your body to reabsorb the bruise by the body’s natural healing mechanisms. Additionally, arnica creams or gels have also been found to reduce swelling and lessen pain.

Is it safe to use arnica cream?
Arnica cream or arnica gel is a safe and effective option to deal with bruises and pain. Make sure not to apply arnica cream to any open areas of skin and rather let them start to heal up before starting to apply arnica to deal with the surrounding bruising. As with any skin care product, discontinue use if irritation, redness, swelling, or hive-like rash occur. Allergic contact dermatitis to any skin product can occur but it is rare.
Conclusion: Arnica cream is an effective topical medicine to use for dealing with swelling, pain, and bruises. Take all necessary precautions and follow the healthcare provider’s recommendations and instructions carefully to avoid any adverse side effects.
