Bruises after waxing arms

2017-07-30 18:55:39
I've been waxing my arms today and got really bad bruises on the middle folding part of both my arms (where nurses usually draw blood from patients). This is not the first time I'm waxing myself, but it's the first time that something like this happens. Is this normal? What can the reason for this be?

Hi. i can understand your concern. Bad bruises need not to be treated. It will go by itself. Still if you want you can apply arnica gel 3 daily for next 7 days. Thank you.
