Is It To Be Concerned About The Bruising In The Naval Area After A Car Wreck?
my daughter was in a car wreck 2 days ago. She has had pain/soreness slightly above & to the right of her navel. As of this evening, there is bruising appearing in that area. Should she return to the ER to be rechecked? They did CT scans & x-rays, no other testing.

You need to go back to the ER. We need to see whether bit is a superficial injury or an internal injury.
