Suggest Treatment For Lump On Hip And Tender Knee Due To An Injury

Hi, I m female aged 21. My road bike skidded over on top of me while going around a corner. My upper thigh/hip took most of the impact. There is a rather large (15cm accross, 12cm high) painful pink lump there now. My leg also got stuck under my bike twisted counter-clockwise so inside my hip all around and my knee also feel tender. It s painful and feels very strange to walk. What should I do?

hi,

thank you for providing the brief history of you.

As per your history you had RTA and now you have difficulty in walking and pain as well.

I will advice you to undergo a thorough clinical examination on a safer side. Also an x-ray might help us to be on a safer side if any injury is there.

As in most RTA there is muscular injuries than bony ones. And this takes a little time to reduce as the impact of the fall will be highly damaging the muscular system. this takes a little time to heal

I will advice you to undergo a thorough clinical examination and an x-ray of the hip on a safer side.

Regards
