Suggest Remedy For Swelling On The Buttocks From An Injury

I had a blunt force to the front of my hip near my hip flexor. I now have swelling in about a 8 inch circle about a inch thick. I am icing and applying pressure. How long should I wait before I worry about a severe injury. Not much pain until I raise my leg. Not bad even then.

HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, in absence of some injury to the hip area this could be matter of concern and it may be some skin lesion, in my opinion it can be well managed with "Tab Ibuprofen 400 mg" three times in day, if symptom does not improved then clinical examination is must, hope this information helps, take care and have a nice day.
I find this answer helpful
