Hi,I am Dr. Gopal Goel (Orthopaedic Surgeon). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I pulled a muscle in my abdomen last Friday, on Wednesday after work I noticed a large bruise in that area. I am on Xaralto and the doctor had me on Ibuprofen and a muscle relaxer. I immediately stopped the Xaralto, Ibuprofen, and muscle relaxer. the bruise has not spread since wednesday, there is no blood in my urine or feces. Do I need any further treatment at this time?

How Can A Pulled Abdominal Muscle Be Treated?
Hi, If the extent of the bruise is not much and does not spread in the future then no further treatment is needed. It will heal itself over time. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further. Regards, Dr. Mohammad Mostafa Ansari Ramandi, Cardiologist
