Treatment for a bone bruise may include: Resting the bone or joint Applying ice to the area several times a day Raising the injury above the level of your heart to reduce swelling Taking medicine to reduce pain and swelling Wearing a brace or other device to limit movement, if needed The tough part about a bone bruise is that they can be very painful, especially in the initial healing phase. The other key consideration for the athlete is that return to play can be highly variable, taking from a couple of weeks to several months. There are several interesting variables about bone bruises. Just found that quickly on google. Edited August 14, 2021 by Phil Silvers 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not a medic but watched enough sports to know bone bruises can take anywhere from a few days to months of recovery depending on the severity. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For info bruise bones usually occurs alongside a fracture. Its not often reported as by the time the fracture heals so have the bruised bones. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Best way to think of it is one step away from a fracture. Six weeks max IME. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I figured it wasn’t just a precautionary move for him to walk straight off the pitch like that. He clearly injured something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He must've already had it before the game. He pulled up after taking a shot, there was no impact that I could see. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good job we signed Ings. What’s the point? How some didn’t see the obvious I don’t know. From @villalad21 saying he’s genetically not going to get injured and Ollie didn’t even make the first game to generally other posters saying another quality striker wouldn’t get minutes. I’m just glad the management saw it. Not helping today so far though as it’s the defending that’s killing us. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The quicker he's back the better. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dont_do_it_doug. Posted August 16, 2021 Share Posted August 16, 2021 Contusions can be relatively serious, or they can be relatively minor. Watkins sounded relatively minor considering he was close, according to the gaffer. No need to flap anyway, we should absolutely not be playing 2 up top with our central midfielders, so him being out might be a blessing in disguise while the manager accepts this simple fact.

WallisFrizz Posted August 16, 2021 Share Posted August 16, 2021 He’s in the Leon Bailey Arriving at BMH video walking along looking perfectly mobile and happy. Obviously not a training shot but also doesn’t look anything massively serious that would require him to be out months. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
