A member asked:
I have a protruding mass under my skin resulting from a hard fall onto a metal edge, its been 2 years and the mass is still there.. it is 4x2?

Mass: This could have originally been a collection of blood (hematoma) under the skin and then hardened into a permanent fibrous mass. It doesn't sound serious but if it is symptomatic or causing concern,see your physician for evaluation.
