Serious Bruise And Swelling Of The Inside Of My Left

Serious bruise and swelling of the inside of my left forearm,one week ago, from a fall. There was skin peeling of about 3 to 4 inches long, several layers deep. I was seen at an ER and it was dressed, no fracture,
I'm on Coumadin and the swelling has not gone down with daily icing. Over night the skin tightens, significantly, and loosens with Ice, during the day.

Doctor's appointments are not available until next week. How long should this last?
