Should A Hematoma Above The Navel Be Further Reviewed?
My grandson (age 25) has a lump on his stomach, above the belly button that has been diagnosed as a hematoma. He has had this lump for approximately 10 days to two weeks. One of these store front physicians immediately diagnosed it a hematoma and advised him to use warm conpresses. Should further review be done? Thank you.

I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
* As per my case evaluation, there is need to get the cause of hematoma rather than just warm compresses.
* In our clinic, I recommend a basic lab work of blood coagulation parameters and so forth for further management guidelines.
