Brief Answer:
it might need needle aspiration

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
I have studied your case. Collection of blood is due to muscle trauma.So it is a serious injury. It will take some time to pain to go completely. I have following suggestions for you.
1.Hot water fomentation.
2.Tablet Brufen 400 mg twice daily.
3.Take a broad spectrum antibiotic as some time these hepatoma can become infected. I would suggest you to take Augmenting 625 mg thrice daily for three days,
4.If blood collection is not getting dissolved then you might need a needle aspiration. Doctor will apply compression bandage so that it should not refill again.
5.Do not walk too much or stand because it can cause muscle to bleed again.
I hope this answer will be useful for you.Let me know if their is any other followup questions.
thanks
