JoMac, I would think heat on your bruise would just make more blood come to the surface. If that doesn't help, try ice for twenty minutes, but what do I know? Nothing.
If your doctor is only there 2 days a week, he probably has his own practice somewhere else. He could be the best doctor in town for all we know. Check him out online.
You're right, this stress is not good for you. I hope you can get some answers do you can relax more. Good luck. I have a feeling you're going to be ok.
