Hi. I went down a water slide a year ago banging my let hard. It didn t swell up straight away but after a while a lump the size of a golf ball appeared. The first aide guy said to elevate it and use a cold pack. My grandson wanted me to keep going with him so I did. The spot is still very sore and slightly discoloured on skin as if the bruising was still there. Now the bone is aching below the spot. What do you think?
Hello, might be worth getting at X-ray. Sometimes after injuries like this you can develop post-traumatic arthritis. If its painful just take an over the center medicine like Tylenol. Might be time for your primary care doctor to take a look. Best wishes. A Chat Doctor.
