I am 62 years old, 152 lbs, 5ft 9 inches. No medical problems I hit my shin bone 3 weeks ago, about 7 inches below the front of my knee, it is not hurting me but it has a lump the size of a quarter. Please advise what I can do to get rid of the swelling. Thank you
Hi, Dear,tanks for the query. I reviewed your query in depth. And I am of the opinion that it is due to the hit which lead to the -bony contusion with hematoma-clot which is recovering slowly. Cold packs 2 times a day/ leg elevation while sleeping, and Anti-inflammatory tbs, for which you may contact your local doctor. Re-contact if you have more problem. Hope you got the answer to your satisfaction.Welcome to Chat Doctor again. Thks for query to Chat Doctor.
