A long time ago i had a bruise on my left upper outside thigh and it cleared up, it left like a dent/raised area in my leg. I asked two GP's and they said nothing to worry about and it was just fatty tissue. I have since noticed a small little bump/lump in the area. What should i do?
Hi ! Good evening. I am Dr Shareef answering your query.
Most likely it could be an organised hematoma, which might subside by itself, or with the help of some anti inflammatory drug for a few days. There is nothing to be worried. In case this increases or pain increases, then I would rather go for an FNAC followed possibly by an excision biopsy of the lesion. Further management would depend on the report.
I hope this information would help you in discussing with your family physician/treating doctor in further management of your problem. Please do not hesitate to ask in case of any further doubts. Thanks for choosing health care magic to clear doubts on your health problems. Wishing you an early recovery. Dr Shareef.
