Is it normal for a broken cancellous to be still swollen and bruised a little after 9 weeks?

Probably need to see: You need to show your callous to a doctor. It may need medical attention. It may be early cellulitis. I can't tell just from your description. Warm, tender, pain, red...That's inflammation and could be infection.....
