Bread and sugar for bruises

Well I got this tip some time ago but I tired it out and it does work.

When I was little and fell or walked against something, my Mom took a piece of bread (a small piece) and a teaspoon sugar and mixed up those 2 thing. She then put this mixture on our forehead which usually was the area where we got hurt and then she let it sit for about 10-15 minutes. After that she wiped it off with a damp cloth. I am not sure why but it always worked, and we had no bruises or other marks.

I have done this with my own daughter and this old tip still worked.
Some people might this is really "yucky" but try it and you will see for yourself that it does do the trick.
