Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Hi, I fell directly on my left breast and it was severely bruised for the past 3 weeks, skin just looking normal now, but I am left with a large swelling inside the breast ...size of a grapefruit and it hurts if i try to touch it...(think it s a hematoma). What can be done?
Thanks for writing to HealthCareMagic, I am Dr Muhammd Ahmad, I have closely read your question and I understand your concerns, I will hereby guide you regarding your health related problem.
It seems that there was some hemotoma(blood collection) in your brest that usually gets resolved by itself but if its still there after tens of days and it is hurting then in my opinion you need to get it seen by a doctor. Doctor might order a breast ultrasound to check what is inside if it's a mass or liquid bleed, sometimes liquid bleed can be evacuated with a needle.
I would suggest you to visit a doctor and gwt it checked up.
I hope this answered your question, if you have more feel free to ask,otherwise close the discussion and rate it.
Regards.
Dr.Muhammad Ahmad. General and Family Physician..
