My thigh was badly injured in a fall and the entire leg has swelling and is turning yellow. Injury happened 1 week ago. The pain has been moderate. Walking with a limp that loosens up as I go. Understand it takes time to heal at 60 years age. Concerned about the swelling and yellow coring for entire leg.
