Suggest Remedy For Pain And Swelling In Thigh After A Bad Fall
I fell hard on the concrete and hit my outer thigh. I did not have any bruising and it is still very swollen. This happened over a week ago and it still hurts. If I bump against anything it feels like someone put a knife in my thigh. I do not feel like I need to go to the doctor and it is still swollen what do I do.

HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, soft tissue inflammation is very likely but still is advisable to get done the x-ray of injured part and it is just for to rule out the fracture part, till then try not to move your leg, hope this information helps ( Collection of blood beneath skin may be very likely, care need to be taken for infection )
