Suggest Treatment For Bruise Due To Hematoma Formation

Can lead to bruise due to hematoma formation
Detailed Answer:
Hi,
I have studied your case.
Traumatic injury can lead to bruise due to hematoma formation.
If there is fracture in your leg bone then it is difficult to walk on it
You will need X ray of knee and leg.
I consider that x ray was done and came out normal
Clinical examination is important to rule out knee or ankle ligament injury
For these symptoms analgesic and medication can be started.
Till time take medication like analgesic and apply crepe bandage over leg or use supportive splint. Do ice fomentation and rest to leg.
Unless the large hematoma is compressing a nerve or you can do cold fomentation.
Very rarely we need to drain hematoma,usually it resolves gradually on own improving healing process.
If required you may need to do blood investigation for prognosis and recovery.
Colour Doppler study will help to know any vascular injury.
Take precaution to avoid infection around hematoma.
