I just fell today while hiking onto a log. I have a large lump on my thigh just above my knee. Few hours later it is now turning into a bruise. Just a little pain. I am far from my home and my doctor., I have taken advil. Any advice until I get home would be greatly appreciated. Thank you
Hi, It seems that there might be having formation of hematoma following fall producing large lump. As there is not much pain, nothing to worry for having any injury in knee or fracture. Apply ice pack 2-3 times a days for 2-3 days. Swelling will subside gradually. Ok and take care.
