General Surgeon 's  Response
HI.
You have got a diagnosed Hematoma on the neck. repeat the ultrasonography; IF the Hematoma is liquefied yet, ask you Doctor to aspirate the hematoma under USG guidance. Take antibiotics only if there is evidence of infection like redness, pain; otherwise not necessary. Take injection Tetanus Toxoid .
