Suggest Treatment For Unhealed Wound On Right Knee After Injury

I was in an automobile accident this past April. I was xrayed and treated at the local emergency room afterwards. All of my few injuries were bruises. And all but one have gone away. One on my right knee that is about 8 inches in diameter has barely even faded, remains tender to the touch and the knee feels very weak at times. What type of treatment should I expect my doctor to suggest?

Hello,

It seems to be a large bruise. This will take time even weeks to months. If this hurts or you think there is oozing or purulent discharge. I suggest you to seek medical advice as soon as possible.

Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Sameen Bin Naeem, General & Family Physician
