As you get older your skin thins. When I bump my arms (upper) they bleed quite profusely and bruising spreads under the skin taking weeks to heal. How can one thicken the skin to avoid this. I am 59 years old live in South Africa which is obviously a sunny country.

Can anyone help?

Thank you Calvin

Hello, your problem is not primarily your thin skin. I'm 64 and have thin skin also. You need to take vitamin C every day. Check out this article on www.verywell.com website named "Vitamin C requirements and dietary sources" and you will understand why you need vitamin C every day, if not through your food then simply take it as a supplement in pill form EVERY DAY. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 98.67.154.49 (talk) 21:51, 11 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Propose Merge with Wound healing

There's not really a lot of info here that isn't already found in wound healing and its not really different because skin repair is a part of the wound healing process already so I believe it should be merged. LoverOfAllAnimalsActivist (talk) 15:01, 22 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
