Suggest Treatment For Bruised Leg After An Injury
I injured my thigh muscle about 2 months ago--fell on a metal bar. It was bruised pretty bad and I had a difficult time walking for a couple of days since the muscle was so sore. That area of my leg is still very tender and now has a dent in it where the bruise was. Is this something that I should have looked at or does it just need more time?

Dear Sir/Madam
I have gone through your query and read your symptoms.
In my opinion, the area you are talking about would have had a hematoma inside, which simply means blood collection after injury, now this settles with time and can cause an indentation like thing, if it pains it should be a thing of concern and needs expert help, otherwise, you can wait for some more time for it to settle.
I hope that answers your query. If you want any more clarification, contact me back.
