What Could Painful Bruise With Cyst Like Protrution From Thigh After Accident Suggest?

My husband was in an accident cycling and hitting street. Left thigh upper muscle took most impact. Large amount of swelling and bruising. Painful but took old painpills without seeking medical help. Now after week bruising is better except a large round cyst-like protrudes from upper thigh. Size of a man s fist. It is painful and bruised. This has an almost sponge like feel to it and not fluid. Is this a blood clot? Thank You.

Hi
Hope this message finds you in good health.
I have gone through the complaints and understand your concern.
You are right.He seems to have injured his thigh muscles which generally take around 3-4 weeks time to heel,if given adequate rest,
The treatment you are taking is absolutely right,but i guess you are not taking sufficient rest.Most probably its due to blood clot which get better in coming days.
But still,it will eventually heal.
Take analgesics,anti-inflammatory tablets,crepe bandage,rest.
Nothing to worry about.
I hope your question has been answered.
If you have any follow-up queries,feel free to consult me anytime.
Thanks,Take care,God bless.
