I've been using Arnica topically for bruises and sore muscles for years and I'm very pleased with it. I have not taken it internally (you can buy the little homeopathic vials) but my mother swears by it that way, too.

I too, have had fairly good success with Arnica gel for bruising. I bruise very easily (probably deficient in something), so even a slight bump into something will likely cause an ugly bruise on me. The Arnica gel does fade them quicker than if I don't use it.
I still can't get over how quickly my elbow has healed. I smacked it good on that rock! It is only 2 days later and I can hardly tell.
