Why do I have a lump underneath my bruise?
Last week I had one of those very sturdy baby gates fall back on me. It hit both the backs of my legs... one more than the other. I bruised immediately. It hurt so bad. I am on baby aspirin (as a blood thinner), so I tend to bruise easily. I didn't think much of it. The next day, I noticed a lump underneath a part of the bruise. It hurt to press on it. A week or so has gone by, and the discoloration of the bruise is diminishing. However, the lump is still there, still hurts, and it's starting to itch really bad too. Does anybody know what this is all about? My husband is freaking out and thinks I should see a doctor in case I have a blood clot.

it could be a hematoma a very deep muscle type bruise and yes, you should see a Dr. because it may be swelling and that could mean more than just a bruise.

yeah could be a busted vein if you have the money go to the doctors but if not im pretty sure it will go away on its own....

its most likely not a blood clot. you probably busted a vein. no big deal though. put ice on it.
