How To Cure Painful Bruise On The Buttocks?

i fell a week ago today landing on my left buttock very hard. i had a bump for the week noticing it was getting smaller. last night getting out of my car i hit the bump. this morning i now have a blood looking bruise. it is still painful when i walk and have a sharp pain in one spot. was this a hematoma of some sort? is there something that can be done or does it need to run its course?

Hi,Thanks for your query. After going through your query I came to know that you injured your left buttock a week ago and you got hematoma. If you has no fever, then no need to worry much. Hematoma gradually resolved by itself .Thrombophob gel local application three times a day over it(no rubbing) can help in resolving it. Sometimes haematoma does not resolve by themselves. In these cases aspiration with wide bore needle is done to suck the collected blood under aseptic condition for which you need to visit doctor. You can discuss with your treating Doctor about it.I do hope that you have found something helpful.If you have additional questions or follow up queries then please do not hesitate in writing to us.
