What Is The Remedy For Bruising On My Foot Caused By A Dog Bite?

My dog ran into my shin at top speed about 10 days ago. I had a large lump and bruising. The lump is still there but a lot of the bruising has gone away. It is still very painful especially if touched. The strange part is that today I noticed though most of the original bruising is gone, there is now bruising around my foot and ankle.

Hi
Welcome to Healthcare-Magic
Greetings of the day

There is no cause for concern, it could be underlying deep seated hematoma which would have become obvious when the superficial hematoma has resolved.


Take Care

Best Regards
