Suggest Treatment For Bruise On The Buttock Caused After A Fall
I fell Thursday am on stairs at home, kind of slid down 2 stairs landing hard on my left buttock. Have a pie-sized ugly bruise on the left buttock. Still swollen at least 2 times normal after 2 days of ice packs, warm bath and warm moist heat. Only top 1/2 of buttock is swollen. I can walk ok and pain is minimal, just so swollen it s hard to sit or lay down comfortably.
For treatment of bruise on the buttock caused by fall you can take some antibiotic preferably cefadroxyl or ampoxin after an expert advice along with combiflam or ibugesic-plus for swelling and inflammation. You can do hot fomentation over the buttocks to reduce the swelling.
