Oh dear. I went out on Wednesday and had a few glasses of gin, and walked smack bang into a heavy metal post! I have a massive, purple and red bruise on my thigh three weeks before a week in tenerife 
Are there any 'old wives tales' out there to rid me of this?! I know, I should have slapped a steak on it or some ice or something when I did it, but to be honest I just flopped on the bed and fel asleep!:p

I agree with culpepper, three weeks is plenty of time for a bruise to fade completely, even a big one!0

Hi, Martin’s asked me to post this:
Sorry, giving or asking for medical advice is not permitted on this forum as it’s not what this site is about. While discussing medical insurance policies, cheaper ways to see consultants, cashback for alternative health treatments and how to get specific medication cheaper (legally) are all perfectly acceptable we ask you specifically not to discuss what to do in the event of certain medical problems (please see this rule on the Health Board). If you have any questions about this policy please email [EMAIL="abuse@moneysavingexpert.com"]!!!!!![/EMAIL].
I've deleted some replies as it's against the site rules. Sorry everyone.
