I tripped over a 2 inch raise in the sidewalk and got a scrape 2 inches below the left kneecap and a huge swollen lump 2 inches below that on Tues. night 9/11/12. I am on warafin. I called the doctor and they told me to skip one day of warafin medicine. The swelling has gone down from 3/4 inch to 1/2 inch and from a 3 inch area down to a 1 1/2 inch area. I have been icing the leg on and off since Tuesday night. Should I be doing anything differently? I keep the leg raised at night when sleeping and at home during the evening before bed. I put an ace bandage on it durning the day but it bothers me and the area (lump) is still warm to tthe touch. Do I need to go in and have the doctor look at it? I take blood thinners for chronic a-fib and I am a 57 yr. old female. Thank you. Alison
