What Treatment Is Suggested For Swelling & Bruise Of Shin Area?

A few years ago I fell and hit my shin. It left me with a slight swelling below the injury. I still have the swelling and above it it feels like I can feel my shine bone. It doesn't hurt or worry me but wondering if I should do something after all these years

Hello
Thank you for using healthcaremagic
I read your question and understood your concern
I think after so many years there's not much to do about it.
It is an organized hematoma and it will remain like this. If it bothers you too much then you can think about surgery to remove it.
