Tony I have a puncture wound about the size of a nickel and fairly deep on my side above my hip. Eight hours after injury I went to prompt care. They could not put stitches in in, too late I guess. I received Keflex for infection. It is healing but there is a massive hard lump underneath wound. There was major bruising around entire hip area from impact of my body hitting foot peg on dirt bike. Swelling and most bruising has now subsided, just this hard knot underneath. 7/22/12 original injury date
Hi, It seems that there might be having hematoma formation after hard impact and now encapsulted. Apply ice pack 2-3 times a day for few days. Apply Thrombophob cream locally. Gradually it will be absorbed. Ok and take care.
