Bruise On The Buttocks. Will It Go Away?

I fell in august 12 and got a large bruise on my right butt cheek. the bruise is gone and left a dent. I have been doing exercises daily to try to get it to go back to normal. after months of doing lunges and squats daily the dent is still there and is sore when i push on it. how do i get my butt to look normal again?

General & Family Physician,  's  Response
You probably hurt the gluteal muscle . Unfortunately muscle does not regenerate with muscle, but causes fibrous tissue(scar tissue ) . This means the dent will be permanent .
