I'm getting my injections done for the third time tomorrow and I'm wondering if there is something i can take to prevent swelling and bruising. ( i can't get my hands on arnica montana in my area) i tend to swell and bruise a lot, more than most people. Swelling usually goes down after 3 4 days. Bruising lasts longer.
