Suggest Treatment For Lump With Bruise
My husband slipped and fell on his back on some stairways. He has a lump on he's lower back aling with a big bruise which keeps expanding. He's able to move up and down side to side and had no pain just soreness. Should we be alarmed and should we go to the doctor.

Hi,
This type of injury may take a few weeks to settle down completely. In the meantime he needs good pain relief. I suggest paracetamol and ibuprofen. Warm compresses to the area may help.
I wish him well. Regards, Dr K A Pottinger
