Bruised bones are the result of internal bleeding. It would make no difference if you wrapped them, however if wrapped too tightly you will prevent the blood from circulating and it will take longer to heal. Wrapping with padding may prevent you from bruising the same bones again if the bruise is a result of an activity which you do on a regular basis. In summary wrap to avoid repetitive injury to the same bone(s), otherwise allow to heal naturally without wrapping. Note - I'm not a doctor, however played soccer to a high standard and have knowledge of the above.

Why does the human body need to regenerate bone?

umm...our bodies are designed to fix a wound such as a cut or burn. so if you were to break a bone or something then i think that the body would naturally regenerate bone. but say if you were growing then your body needs to generate bone to compensate for your growth. and if you want to have strong bones, then of course drink alot of calcium rich drinks such as milk.
