A member asked:
I've had a large hematoma on my upper right thigh for over a year as a result of getting my leg caught in a deck. sometimes hurts. what should i do?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
See a doctor : If this was really a bruise, it should have resolved over 2-3 weeks after the injury. The damage seems to have walked itself off, and should be evaluated by an ortho, with or without the proper imaging to assess what kind of injury you had/have...
