How long will it take a bone bruise to heal in my elbow?

Last friday i was in a golf cart accident and it tipped
On its side landing on my arm. I went to the ER and they said i had a bruised boneand gave me prescripon aleve (for swelling) and vicodin for pain. How long till it will heal? When will i no longer need vicodin for serious pain from it?

Actually your age is a big factor when it comes to how long it takes bones to heal. If you are under 20 or so, should be no more than a week or 2. From 20 to about 35, more like 31/2 to 4 weeks, and over 40 more like 6 weeks. The pain level should subside in a few days, whatever your age. Make sure you eat well to help your body heal, and hope you feel better soon.
