Any Suggestion For Redness On Left Buttock?
I am 60'ish female. I fell four days ago (Thursday) on my left buttox and notice this a.m. that it is red. I am not bothered with walking however, concerned that I am in minor pain when sitting. I have taken Aleeve three times over the four day period. Should I put ice and continue taking Aleeve more consistently?

Hello,
You have got a soft tissue injury of your left buttock. It would be safe to get an x-ray of that part you don't have any hairline fractures. Otherwise, it will take about three to four weeks for you to be completely alright. I would suggest you take the medications if the pain is severe only and get the x-ray done.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Santosh S Jeevannavar
