How Can A Hematoma Between The Shoulder And Neck Be Treated?
I have a big hematoma between my shoulder and neck. It was firm now I'm feeling liquid build up in it. What can I do to help it. I'm in some pain. How i got it had a big fatty tumor removed 2 months. A huge hematoma formed ended up at Er twice. Had a drain tube. Went back to surgery to remove it with draing tube. After 1 week the hematoma is back but not as big. Removed tune Monday and now 2 days later I feel liquid build up. What shall I do?

Hello,
The hematoma formation post surgery suggests compromised bleeding control during surgery or secondary oozing after surgery from various reasons. Primary care with
- Ice-application.
- prescription of antibiotics and anti-inflammatory medicines with your family doctor.
- Discuss the need for repeat surgery.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
