Bruises

A Bruise is a clump of pain, wanting to circulate and flow.

With this Bruise, you can still feel the pain although the damage is already done.
A Bruise can not be tended to like a cut, it heals on its own over time.
Just because the swelling goes away does not mean the Bruise did not exist.
