Hello,
I just started full contact sparring, and I have come away surprisingly with massive bruises (this is with protective gear [hands, feet, shins, chest, head]) and noticed no one else had bruises quite as bad as me. Growing up, I don't remember getting bruises easily, but it seems times have changed. I'm even getting bruises on my shins where I'm wearing shin guards. Most of the other bruises are along my forearm area. What can I do to alleviate or reduce the bruising while continuing in sparring? And once i have bruises, what can I use (that is easily bought in a grocery store, no chinatown where I live) that will reduce the time they exist? Are there any vitamins or minerals that help reduce bruising in general? Thanks!
