Contusion
(2 discussions)
Last night, I went to the hospital with a large bruise-streching the whole calf on the side..they took X-rays and said nothing was broken. They gave me an ACE bandage, i left it on as told..the blood and muscle tissue from the contusion has gone to my ankle, as I have a large baseball sized pool under the skin..any suggestions?

I would suggest you take that bandage off before you get some nasty damage due to the adema. You probably got the contusion from an impact, so keep it elevated, and put some ice on it several times a day.

If you can provide details on how you got the contusion initially, I may be able to suggest something.
