Bruises

How long until the bruises go away I have about six huge black and blue marks on my stomach. Two of them are where I was cut but the other four I don't know how I got them. I was sleeved on 5/2,when did yours go away.

I was sleeved may 7 and mine took about 2 weeks to go away.

I was sleeved on April 23 and can still barely see on my thigh. They are probably from the blood thinner shot they give you. Mine were in the thigh but have seen some get them in the abdomen...

Yes they were giving to me in my stomach I guess that's what they are. Thanks guys.

I was also sleeved 5/2! :)

I had bruises around my incisions for about 2 wks. The bruises from the blood thinner shots (I had several) took almost a month.

Eat bananas! Potassium helps heal bruises. Good luck! :)
