Hi
I banged my shin in February and as usual got the mother and father of all bruises. But instead of healing I now have a large lump with slightly darker skin which GP thinks is Haematoma. It has gone down slightly since I started Lodine (for joint pain) a couple of weeks back but still there, hurts to touch and the skin around it itches like crazy sometimes. I also fell on my knee just after that - yes I am rather clumsy
That too bruised black but luckily didn't turn into a haema thnigy. However it did itch like crazy whilst it was there.
Anyone else get this reaction to bruising? Anyone else had a haematoma and if so how long did it last.
Thanks
Sara
