What Is The Remedy For A Lump After An Injury?

Hello.
Well, I was running around with my oldest son in the house. He had knocked over his drum set (the rock band one) and I fell on top of it. I bruised my belly really bad... like where my left ovarie would be. I woke up the next day and found a lump in that exact spot. It has now been about 5 days and it is still there. Should I be concerned? What could it be?

Hi.
There may not be anything much to worry about as 5 days have passed since your accident and the lump is there , which I hope without much symptom.
This is is most probably a collection of blood- hematoma. It will resolve on its own if there is no infection.
Yet a note of caution. Get Ultrasonography done if possible to confirm hematoma and rule out any other problem,
Do you have any symptoms?
