Fall From A Bike, Cuts, Bruises On Right Leg, Hard Areas Under Skin. Blood Clots?

Hello, I had a fall on a bike a few months ago where the inside of my lower right leg had a few cuts and bruises. Now months later, I have some hard areas under the skin where the inpact was. These areas do not hurt but I was worried they could be a blot clot or something. What could this be? The cut was not deep enough to need stitches.

Hi,
Thanks for writing your query.

After reading your post, it seems that you are having soft tissue swelling.
It will take few days to weeks for complete recovery.

You can take painkiller and serratiopeptidase for faster recovery after getting yourself clinically examined and investigated.

Hot fomentation can be beneficial in your case.

I hope this is helpful to you.
Thanks.
