Can Intense Bouts Of Pain In Right Side Be Due To Haematoma?
I was involved in an auto accident in early april this year. (rear ended) I have a neck and back injury. Over the course of the past 3 months I have had intense bouts of severe pain in my right side. I have associated this with my back injury until yesterday. The area of pain is like a stabbing pain and hurts to touch. I now have a bruise about the size of my fist on my side. It is hard to differentiate the pain from my side with the back pain. I am concerned. Dr today said he thinks it is a hematoma working its way out?
