    Very effective on existing bruises. It's most commonly available as a homeopathic gel, topically applied. You can also get it in pellet form, to be taken orally.

    Traumeel brand gel is also very good - it contains arnica as well as some other healing ingredients like calendula, plus some analgesics.

    Go to a big natural foods store like Whole Foods and they will have samples of Arnica you can try.

    Comfrey ointment is another product that works very well for aches and is available at many natural food stores. GNC doesn't have as much selcetion of homeopathic products as a health or natural foods store. I would recommend going to one of them over GNC.

    Arnica gel and tabs are breat for right after your BA. I did both and had no visible bruising what so ever.

    I worked at a farm for a homeopathic stable owner. This stuff is gold. I got kicked on the side of my cheek bone, and with enough arnica, the swelling was way down and the blue was gone within a few days.

    I put this on the "old stripper tricks" list. Pure gold. Make sure you get it and keep it with you; sure it dosen't help right away that night; but having it with you reminds you to put it on.

    I took the pellet form of Arnica starting 2 weeks before my BA and had NO brusing after the surgury. Arnica rocks!

    It really does! Especially if you take it internally and apply the gel externally at the same time.

    Comfey is awesome too. I followed Susan's advice and got myself some after I broke my toe. And within a week I was pain free.
