I choose to believe that Hulk's arm healed totally fine, then he changed back to Bruce and promptly tripped and broke his arm.

[thearchitectbmp]

His neck and shoulder scars are also healed. In the comics, whenever he transforms from human to hulk all wounds from the previous state are healed.

[dylan]

Seems to me that Bruce going back to human form then hulking out again later is what healed his arm. At the end of Shang Chi theres are no burn marks, I bet his human body starts his healing process over in a way, so when he hulks out, back to 100%

[jakublizon]

Hulk was always going to heal. He has a healing factor that I believe surpasses wolverine. It just took a while because it was fried by 6 infinity stones going off at once.

[theautisticcreative]

The Hulk just took a long time to heal, compared to other times, because the combined Infinity Stone energy seriously damaged the Hulk arm and the healing factor was slowed or temporarily stopped, in other words the Infinity Stone Energy stalled the Hulk's healing factor and it just needed a reboot, most likely by returning to Banner's human form.

[TheOnlyStonemason]

It was actually stupid for the Russo’s to state it was a “permanent” thing…Hulk is immortal and has unparalleled healing powers

[zachwilliams]

I’m glad I’m not the only one who noticed his arm was no longer burned in Shang Chi.

Q: When Did Hulk's Arm Heal?
A: When the CGI budget kicked in.

[griffgames]

*The 'full Infinity Stone' damage was intense cosmic magic* damage (injured Thanos, killed Tony), requiring more time for Hulk to heal.

[kickflipdemon]

it would be funny if banner just took longer to heal, because the power of the snap was just so powerful that it should have killed him, but since hes the hulk he survived and just had a longer time to heal from the damage of that magnitude. is what i thought might have happened

[ptonfire]

kev Fiege saying' thats very observant' ="yes u hit the nail on the head, u get it.."

[ashbash]

I think Bruce’s wrist tech is a on/off switch for the hulk, similar to the Totally Awesome Hulk

[filibuster]

Hulk's healing factor is stronger/faster than Deadpool and Wolverine's. It should've only took him less than a minute to heal from the Infinity Gauntlet. Not only that, but Hulk shouldn't have been hurt by the gauntlet at all since gamma radiation makes hulk stronger when he absorbs it.

The next video going to be the Spiderman NWH Trailer reaction! 🙌

[MatchTheStampede]

I mean, Far From Home was 8 months or so after Endgame, then WandaVision was just a few weeks-ish after Endgame, but before FFH, THEN Falcon was only a few months after Endgame. Not to mention Loki happens at literally all times.

MCU controls the timeline, so it wouldn't surprise me if this is during the Blip. I'm still on the fence about when Shang-Chi happened...

[jeffgames]

No way home trailer 2 break down now god dammit

[bullymaguire]

Hulk has healing factor not as much as wolverines but still considerable. The huge amount of energy might have overloaded it for a short time. I take it that Hulk's regeneration was surpressed, in order to get his brains and brawns together and the experiments he did on himself.

[MaiElizabeth]

I get it. In order for Hulk to heal quicker, he has to revert to human form. So he invented some form of ‘dehulk’ mechanism tool.

[antonissa]

You should do an video about Hulk’s strength level during the MCU.
It would be about why hulk is just “that strong” and how he’s being played dirty and nerfed.
It isn’t necessarily true, the hulk we have seen so far is the “normal” hulk. If you compare MCU Hulk’s strength with the early comic hulk’s strength then you realize that their strength level is pretty much similar.

[w_huug]

Banner's techy wriststrap could be a sort of Amadeus Cho-type device, that enables him to switch between Smart hulk-Banner forms. It could also lead to an Amadeus Cho input to the MCU, which would be cool.
