How To Cure Painful Bump On The Left Leg Due To An Injury?
I got rammed by a goats horns on my left leg on the shin just below my knee. My concern is I have a large goose egg from it and it has been a week and there is bruising around it. The goose egg it self is red and color and very sensitive and if i put a lot of weight on that leg it throbs and is very painful. I have taken 800mg ibuprofen for inflammation. But it still has a lot of fluid on it and it even throbs sometimes just laying down. Is this normal for this to take this long and still throb for no reason? The goose egg it self is numb when I touch it!? Pleae help! Thank you!

Hi dear,
After going through your query, are you able to walk 8-10 steps without support?If not and your suffering is increasing then visit a doctor for xray leg with knee.
Meanwhile,continue the same medicine with ice fomentation.
Take care and do share your xray report.
