Immediately aft a fall with a bump, i will use ICE to contract the blood vessel to prevent swelling. If next day, it's swelling, i will use hard boiled egg to loosen the blood clots.

really helpful cool thanks

i used boiled egg... quickly boiled one n apply, the swell went down n blue-black reduced.

I use ice pack to reduce the swell. after that I'll monitor for 24hrs.

I used ice too as I don't have egg at home. It works too
