You wake up in the middle of a night with a full bladder.  You stumble out of bed and sleepily fumble your way to the bathroom.  Then, as you’re on you way, WHAM, you bang your shin on a piece of furniture you forgot was there.  Ouch!  Not only does it hurt but you know the next morning you’ll have a large ugly bruise mark on your leg.  This actually happened to me last night.

But wait….there’s a way to avoid those bruise marks!  Immediately, rub some olive oil gently on the area.  It will greatly reduce the swelling and black and blue color.  I did this last night.  Today the bruise is hardly visible.
