Suggest A Remedy For The Lump On Foot

Trying to save my scooter from falling the side foot step rammed into my leg.This happened a week and a half ago. The bruise is barely noticable now. i awoke this morning ,got up and went to walk and it hurt. I noticed when I rubbed my leg there was a knot that had formed. I am puzzeled because I now have a lump where the bruising was.I had blood clots years ago in my lungs years ago so needed to know if this is normal to have a lump form so long after the initial injury. I don't go to the Doctor much because my employer dropped our health insurance coverage.I have to pay cash each time I go and belive me I don't eat nothing but ooodles of noodles till my bill is paid. What do you think I should do Doctor?

Hi,dear thanks for the query to my HCM virtual online clinic.Its my pleasure to help you as you are without health insurance benefit.My diagnosis -its a -Unresolved Hematoma- which you noticed.As you had lung clotting history,you should test your clotting factors if it worries you , but not needed for this lump.With the treatment this lump would get reduced in another 2 wks time.You should not worry of it but I advise you to Consult a ER Surgeon-on the safer side.Dont worry and act fast.This would solve your worrysome query.Hope this would solve your query.Wellcome to my HCM clinic once again.Have a Good Day.
