Ouch that hurt! Welcome to the hilariously informative world of "Bruise Clues," where our hosts, Professor Jonathan Sackier and Doctor Nigel Guest, take you on a tour of bruising. Get ready to giggle as we paint the town red... and black and blue and  purple... and yellow!

‍

Ever wondered why your bruise looks like a sunset on your skin? Delving into the nature of bruises, The Docs discuss the various causes behind their appearance, including a fascinating examination of the beautiful spectrum of colours bruises can display.

‍

‍The Docs explore the mysterious world of "easy bruisers" looking into the specific medical conditions commonly associated with easy bruising. From the serious – like leukaemia and haemophilia – to the not-so-serious – like bumping into your coffee table for the hundredth time.

‍

Is it serious? Emphasising the importance of professional medical evaluation, the hosts give you the lowdown on when to worry about your war wounds and how to tell if your bruises are just clumsy bumps or signs of something more serious.

‍

On another note, did Pink Floyd predict the stages of bruising in their album "Dark Side of the Moon"? Because everything's better with a pop culture twist, we take a detour through the Dark Side of the Bruise. Our hosts will have you in stitches as they connect the dots between bruising and the world’s greatest hits.

‍

So tune in, sit back, and prepare to laugh until you bruise (figuratively, of course). Here, the only thing The Docs take seriously is your health... and our jokes!
