Hematoma: Patty, This is probably a hematoma, or a blood collection in the thigh. These are caused by trauma, and can take several weeks to resolve completely. The fact that you are not completely better is not unheard of. Elevation and Ice (I prefer bagged frozen peas) should offer relief. If your symptoms worsen or don't improve, see your doctor. Hope this helps!
