Suggest Treatment For Bump On Leg Due To Hitting
Hello, today i was working out and i was doing box jumps, then i jumped on one side that caused the box to tip over. Then I fell and my leg hit the leg of the box. It didn't really hurt but then i looked down on my leg and there is a big bump in front of my leg. The bump in the middle of it feels squishy and around it feels like a bruise. Any ideas?

welcome to Health care magic.
1.Initially if its a close injury and pain barbell then you can apply an pain killer cream and a tablet for couple of days.
2.Normally within 24-48 hours there should be relief in symptoms.
3.If the pain is unbearable on a scale of 10 above 6 then we should suspect a fracture and needs an x-ray.
4.So where you fit and act accordingly.
Anything to ask ? do not hesitate. Thank you.
