Suggest Remedies For Swollen Bruises On Thigh Post An Injury

I was carrying a coffee table up from the basement . Lost my grip on it and it fell back down the stairs hitting both my legs along the way. The left thigh still has some swelling and is bruised . I have some pain there but I can walk on it. the coffee table probably weighs at least 25 pounds is it just a bruise is what I m wondering?

Hello,

I suggest you to apply ice pack every 15 minutes use Ibuprofen or paracetamol, elevate your extremities and rest. If you don't feel better make X-ray.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
