hi,

thank you for providing the brief history of you.

As you had a fall due to which there will be internal bleeding leading to the formation of haematoma. By the grace of God everything is well and I m happy with that.

This haematoma will take couple of days to go and kindly keep patience as body will excrete the unnecessary particles out soon.

As the body healing takes time and excreting the particle waste takes its own time kindly keep patience and do gentle massage near the haematoma. Everything will be fine soon.

Regards
