Bone bruises can result in one or more symptoms, including:
- Pain and tenderness in the injured area
- Swelling in the area and surrounding soft tissue
- Hard lump in the area
- Changes in color at the injured area
- Swelling and/or stiffness in surrounding joints
- Pain and/or reduced range of motion when using affected joints
What Causes Pain From A Bone Bruise?
Put simply, bone bruises cause pain because the outer layer of the bone is damaged. When this layer is injured, inflammation and swelling occur, resulting in pain. As inflammation and swelling increase, nearby joints can become stiff, making movement and weight-bearing difficult or painful.
Because bone bruising can be caused by direct contact with a hard object or surface, such as during a fall or car accident, associated pain can also be caused by bone chipping at the impact area.
Factors Increasing The Risk Of Bone Bruising
Certain factors can increase the risk of a bone bruise, including:
- Direct impact on a bone
- Joint sprains, such as twisted ankles or wrists
- Participation in high-impact sports
- Lack of protective equipment
- Physically demanding activities in or outside of work
When Should You Seek Treatment?
Thankfully, most bone bruises heal on their own with time and rest. However, some bone bruises are more severe and may require special treatment. This is often the case when a bone bruise results from an underlying cause or accompanies another issue, like a sprain or tear in the ligaments or tendons.
With that in mind, seeking treatment for a bone bruise is warranted in the following situations:
- If the pain is severe and over-the-counter medications aren’t helping
- If the area is swollen or discolored
- If you can’t move your joint normally without pain
- If you’re having difficulty bearing weight
- If the pain persists for more than a few weeks
