What Causes Injury In Bones?
I totalled my car last Wed night. The bruising was very bad. As the color is turning to yellow, there is an area that is approximately 1 inch by 6 inches where the seat belt would have restrained me that is now hard to the touch. Is this normal or should I be worried?

Hi,
As this is normal and happens due to friction and pressure. Allow the healing time to occur like 3-4 days and also use icing to reduce the inflammation. You should be fine soon.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
