A member asked:
I've a 1/2 football size hematoma on upper thigh from injury 1 yr ago. drainage helped very little. surgeon is reluctant-why? and why does foot hurt?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Reluctant to excise?: foot might be unrelated. needs eval. hematoma one year old is residual capsular scar tissue. should be cosmetic only and not cause functional deficits. not much upside to excise at this point unless extremely symptomatic
