Hi
Welcome to Health care magic.
I went through the history you have provided here. It seems from the history that you are having bruise of the upper femur following injury. Bruise is because of collection of blood and it will resolve slowly as the blood gets absorbed.
Cold compression and use of anti-inflammatory drugs provides symptomatic relief.
Do consult your doctor for prescription of drugs.
Do write back to me for further questions.
Thank you for writing to Health care magic.
Wishing you good health
