Brief Answer:
Hematoma can be the reason.

Detailed Answer:
Hello.

Thank you for tge query.

Soft tissues hematoma can be the reason. It is possible that large hematoma can be present even a year after an injury.
That is why, it would be good to have soft tissues ultrasound done. Hematoma can be drained.

Hope this helps.
