Leg injury three weeks ago....?


I had an injury to my leg about 3 weeks ago which resulted in some severe bruising, tenderness, swelling. Now (3wks later) it is still bruised and has a hard mass in the center....is this normal...(bruise was caused by being kicked)

if it is bruised and a hard mass then that could be very bad. if it isnt bruised but still a hard mass then that could be just as bad. you should probably see a doctor in any case. you could possibly have scar tissue in there. in any case see a good doctor.

ummm... I think I'd ask a doctor

Go to the doctor, this sounds like it might be serious (although I can't say for sure). You don't want to neglect it, and then find out that something was wrong.

It could be a cyst. A doctor could tell you for sure, and remove it.
