What To Do For The Lump In The Leg Due To A Fall?

I am on chemo and slipped in tub 1 week ago, banging my lower leg on inside about an inch from shin. It just bruised first with no swelling. It still doesn t appear swollen externally, although slightly bruised still, but I noticed that it feels lumpy under the skin. Could this be a blood clot?

Hi, dear
I have gone through your question. I can understand your concern. You have history of injury. You may have some haematoma formation due to extravasation of blood. You may have chance of some internal injuries. You should go for x ray or mri to rule out any internal injuries. You should take anti inflammatory plus analgesic drug. Consult your doctor and take treatment accordingly.
Hope I have answered your question, if you have doubt then I will be happy to answer. Thanks for using health care magic. Wish you a very good health.
