A member asked:
What would be causing bone bruise to continue to cause mild pain swelling numbness in other parts of the leg a year after injury?
9 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
You need an X-ray: to be sure there's not something going on in the bone other than a bruise. This could be serious. Good luck
