<human>: Hi Dr. I slipped and fell pretty hard on my right side a month ago. The bruises have resolved, but I now have two hard ball feeling things under my skin around the greater trochanter area, where I had a large bruise.  It is still tender to the touch.  What is this?
<bot>: Hi... Sorry to hear about the fall. Thanks for choosing us to answer your query... Your lump and swollen area could be a hematoma that could have been due to fall... Now it is healing...since it is over the bone it is tender to touch. If I were you... I would have iced it frequently on that painful area.... Gently knead the area surrounding the painful spot... In case I have any Anti-inflammatory gel I would apply over it twice daily... Hope this is helpful for you... Kindly revert in case you need any further help in this regard....
