What to do if your feet turn purple?

In people's daily lives, they may bump into things without paying attention, resulting in bruises on the body. The chances of bruises on your feet are high, and sometimes the bruises turn purple. What should I do if my feet turn purple? Everyone must know how the bruises on their feet are formed so that they can remove them according to the situation. In fact, the bruise turning purple is a sign that the blood clot is being absorbed and the body is healing itself, so there is no need to worry.

1. When treating bruises by yourself, you must understand that only ordinary bruises can be treated by yourself. For severe bruises that damage the deep layer of skin and flesh, or severe bruises that do not disappear for a long time, you must not use various methods to remove the bruises by yourself. In the face of serious injuries, any folk remedies are useless. You must go to the hospital in time for blood extraction surgery to prevent muscle necrosis and serious consequences.

1. 2. Within 24 hours after the injury , before bruises form, you can use ice packs to apply cold compresses (if you don't have ice packs, you can wrap ice cubes in a towel, or apply ice cubes directly) to reduce bleeding after rupture of microvessels and reduce the degree of bruising. This is common knowledge and I won't go into details.

   3. After being injured, timely use of fire therapy can quickly eliminate blood stasis and reduce the formation of bruises. Buy a bottle of medical disinfectant alcohol, then use tweezers to hold a cotton ball and dip it in alcohol. It is better if the alcohol does not drip down automatically. Light the cotton ball and roll it back and forth on the injured area. After the cotton ball is extinguished, dip it in alcohol, light it and roll it on the injured area. Repeat this for more than 15 minutes. During the subsequent recovery process, fire therapy was performed two or three times a day, and the blood stasis was removed very quickly. The high temperature of alcohol burning is on the outer flame, so don't panic when operating. As long as the outer flame does not burn your skin, it will be completely fine.

   4. For dense, severe, dot-shaped bruises or massive bruises , bloodletting can be used to remove the bruises. Use a sterilized glass piece to pierce the cortex and squeeze out the blood clots, or you can use a cupping jar to absorb the blood clots after puncture. It should be noted that after puncture and bloodletting, the wound must be disinfected to keep it clean and prevent infection. This method is effective in removing blood stasis quickly, but it is not recommended for people without medical knowledge to use this method without authorization.

   5. Hot compress with pepper wine can quickly remove blood stasis . Find some peppercorns, either dried or fresh, and some strong liquor. Put the peppercorns into the bottle, adding liquor to slightly cover the peppercorns, close the bottle cap tightly, and put the bottle in a hot water bath for more than half an hour. Be careful not to make the water temperature too high, about 70 degrees Celsius is enough to prevent the glass bottle from cracking. After the pepper wine is prepared, pour a little onto a towel or absorbent paper each time you use it, and apply it to the bruise. Apply it for more than 15 minutes each time, half an hour is best, and apply it more often every day if you have nothing to do. You can brew a little more pepper wine at a time for multiple uses. Apply hot compress when making it for the first time. If you have patience, heat it up when you use it next time. If you don’t have patience, just use cold compress.

   6. Cooked eggs are also popular for removing bruises , but they are often more suitable for minor bruises. They are not very effective and thorough for severe bruises. The specific method is: boil the egg whole, peel it, and then roll it back and forth on the bruise while it is hot. If it gets cold, heat it up with boiling water and roll it repeatedly. Roll it for at least 15 minutes each time, and do it at least twice a day.

   7. Some local health clubs or sanatoriums offer programs such as blood-sucking therapy, which use leeches and other blood-sucking animals to suck out blood stasis to clear the body. This method is effective in removing blood stasis quickly, but it requires a little courage.

2. 8. For some bruises that injure the flesh layer, external application of blood-activating and blood-stasis-removing drugs alone may not work quickly. You can take blood-activating and blood-stasis-removing drugs such as Panax notoginseng tablets and Yunnan Baiyao at the same time.

3. 9. In addition to bruises caused by trauma , there are also some inexplicable bruises, which often appear for no reason and disappear inexplicably. The methods used to treat trauma may be very effective in removing bruises, or may have no effect at all, and the bruises may disappear in one place and appear in another place.
