Suggest Treatment For Bruise In Knee After An Injury

This is haemetoma
Detailed Answer:
Hello, Welcome to HCM
I have studied your case and I think that you are having collection of blood just under skin. It is called haematoma. This is slowly dissolving and that is the cause of change in colour. It starts from blue then brown and then yellow. Also as blood comes down it feels like bruise is travelling. It is a common thing after injury and it is nothing serious. You need to follow these steps.
1.Hot water f fomentation as ice has no role after 48 hours.
2.Avoid if you are taking any blood thinning drug like aspirin or clopidogrel after discussing with your physician for one week.
3.Compression bandage or stocking. Avoid standing for long time.
I hope this answer will be helpful for you.
Let me know if there is any other followup questions.
Thanks
