Curious regarding bruising

[Wozz]

Just curious does anyone have any theories with regards to weightlifting and bruise healing? Someone I spoke to had a theory that perhaps as your body always needs to regenerate muscle when its being broken down it may also help with healing bruises etc?

Recently I got a real bad black eye and swollen from drunken wrestling. Saw a doc he said it will take a few weeks for the bruising to go away, 2 days later my eye was normal, all the swelling had gone and you coudln't tell anything happened. This has happened before, never really noticed it before I was weightlifting but perhaps its just coincidental

I've never heard of that, but that doesn't mean it isn't true. Maybe you are just a fast healer.

I always notice when I eat properly and exercise a lot, I heal noticeably faster then usual, whether its cuts/scrapes or bruising going away.
